My grandma lived in Palmer Park on Ponchartrain in the 80’s 90’s and 2000’s! I knew I recognized this house! Used to pass it all the time on the way to visit her. I miss her dearly🥰 It is a beautiful neighborhood. Funny, tho…not even a block away you find yourself in the hood of Highland Park.
I don’t think they are, although they look like it to me. The owner explained to me it was from a different time. So that they’re not. Either way, pretty cool, right?
Beautiful home, never could replace that.Actually, we have a good friend who just bought a home down the street from there two years ago, she lived in Grosse Pointe, always wanted to live in the city, her husband passed and at 61 years old turned around and bought a huge home about six doors down from it, she absolutely loves living there, her home is not as big as that one ,but it’s big enough about 4000 ft.² she gutted the thing She just loves being there. Her property taxes are extremely high, but she’s pretty lucky to have very deep pockets and could care less, said now or never.. don’t forget the best donuts in the city ,Dutch girl donuts ,since the 1920s ,has reopened totally authentically ,just about a mile away !
Yeah, they actually just changed ownership! The new owners are really good people so I’m excited for that. It’s a fantastic area and irreplaceable history!
A beautiful home that was renovated through the years by someone that didn't know what they were doing. Hopefully, someone that has some knowledge about historical architecture can bring it back to it's former glory.
Start telling the viewers the real about the areas these homes are in. Yes it’s golf course behind it, buts it’s crackheads 500ft down the street in highland park low income apartment community across the street. Make it interesting
The amount of renovations needed is ridiculous. I noticed major roof and wall damage. Major water issues. The tiles on the roof are irreplaceable. Electrical and insulation questionable. It would cost 3million above the asking price to renovate and make presentable
I agree with some of your comments the home certainly needs a ton of work I walked the house myself and live in a 1927 English Tudor revival and have gone through a major restoration when we purchased. I would legitimately say this house needs more like 1-1.5 million to be perfect. Still a huge amount. Sadly most of the damage could’ve been prevented had they trimmed the trees back and did basic maintenance of cleaning gutters. The roof is in fairly decent shape but does need attention for sure, needs stucco and Timbers etc. and much more. We just spent 75k “fixing” our slate roof and replacing old copper dormer tops with new copper. It’s not cheap at all but I imagine a person buying a home like this knows exactly what they’re getting into, it’s a painful labor of love.
@@ride1157 yes great comments there and it’s just so interesting to know that there are more than a few people with very deep pockets who are more than interested to redo this sort of project, hats off to them for being able to and to have the ambition
That's my old stomping grounds, I've recently found out a lot of the folks that lived in that area was passing to say the least. The government said it not me, I've seen family & government documents back in slavery & Jim Crow times that whites wrote to back it up 💯.
Back in the Mid-70s when I was growing up in the University District this was on my Free Press paper route up to the Detroit Golf Course but this house did not receive that paper 😒
My grandmother lived on Ponchartrain from as early as I can remember til her passing in 2009. The homes and the neighborhood were amazing! I’m glad to see the upkeep.

Sounds like some deep roots in Detroit!
My aunt lives in Palmer woods, it’s my fav too.
Fantastic home!!! Excellent tour!
Thanks for the view! Feel free to follow for more content like this!
Painted the pool area during a renovation about 25 years ago
yeah not sure. There have been many changes through the years I am sure.
Are the bathrooms done in Pewabic tile
I don’t think they are, although they look like it to me. The owner explained to me it was from a different time. So that they’re not. Either way, pretty cool, right?
Did it sell? If so how much I’m curious of the status
Maybe I missed it, but where is video of the pool and the grounds of the property?
They pool is in back. Due to timing we sadly could not get back there to film.
Your video content is very good. Their demand is increasing day by day. So these beautiful video contents of yours will get good results through SEO.
Many many thanks

Love the sunken living room
I agree! I always say if I build a custom house I want a step down into a living space. That is such a cool feature.
Palmer Park And Palmer Woods Do Show On Balmoral Drive And Sherwood Forest Area."Thank,You!!!"
WOW!!!!!!!!!
Cool property right?!
If we lost this much in 100 years, imagine what we’ve lost since the pyramids.
Wild to think about.

Unique opportunity for a grand home. Looks like buyer would need to make $500,000 in upgrades and have $200,000 for decoration and furniture.
Depends on how much historical items you would want to keep. Many owners choose to keep the historical relevance in these types of properties.

Most of it is original but working on these homes is an art more than a science. Thanks for the comment.
Video starts. 2:45 Way too much chatting. Then they have the nerve to show an ad right before they go in
The ad is from RUclips we cannot control those. Thanks for checking out our channel.
In RUclips studio you can turn off ads for specific videos, so you can control it
Palmer Woods is the absolute best neighborhood in Detroit
One of our favorites too! Many thanks for the follow.
Beautiful house but weird landscaping!
Yeah might use a little TLC. It is a lot of house to take care of!
I admire large old houses like this from the curb but I really think they have limited appeal today.
Yeah it is a lot of house. You need a big family and many friends.
So who is his 3 if he has to pick between Bron and KD?
Isiah
Imagine walking through looking at all that damage then them telling you 1.9 lol
Can you imagine walking through a house for a showing without knowing the price first? That would be a rare one.

My grandma lived on Pontchartrain so I know exactly what you’re talking about lol
Maybe you have a new channel? Sounds like you found your niche?
All cities have their issues with mental health and drugs. Detroit's is getting way better. Many are getting way worse. Good vibes to all!

When people do take the opportunity to update a house like this and do it the right way it’s truly a piece of art and remarkable to see.
Next time you do a walk through . Can paul do it shirtless
We will let him know.
Funny I also noticed how buff he was…lol!

Paper boy days! You must of had some good times and experiences doing that.

You forgot to mention if you cross Woodward you will most likely be dead
So untrue
Only tell cool people about Detroit. 😜
@@slimshadyshady510 Wrong!!
I have lived in this neighbourhood for 40 years - raised a family with no problems
It look haunted 😂😂😂
Do you think that would add value?
@@LIVINGINDETROIT maybe
It’s nice but way overpriced, seller needs to come down three quarters of a million
Talk less show more.
Seems to be pretty straightforward advice.
$1.9M gets you a big old dead house in the GHETTO
No very nice.
Finnish Showing The Damn House Okay Stop Running Your Mouth
The commentary is the best part
Thank you! We try out best. Zillow is pretty good for looking at pictures. We try to show more about the houses and the community.
What can I say? I have always been a talker.
Try fast forwarding it instead of making such ride comments. Not acceptable. Grow up..
Yikes 😬
