2280 N La Salle Gardens, Detroit, MI 48206

Features

Welcome to 2280 North La Salle Gardens, a 1916 colonial tucked in one of Detroit's most cherished neighborhoods. This home is structurally ready for its next chapter.

Major investments have already been made where it counts. The exterior has been refreshed with new paint, stucco, and trim. The garage roof is brand new, and a rebuilt rear deck adds the perfect outdoor retreat. Inside, two newly constructed second-floor bathrooms, including a gorgeous primary ensuite, blend period style with modern comfort.

Prior improvements include a re-decked roof from 2015, a gas furnace installed in 2019, a newer water heater, and double-pane windows throughout. Plumbing has been upgraded with PEX enhancements while preserving original copper lines. Original hardwood floors remain intact, along with the classic fireplace that anchors the main living space.

All of the major systems: structural, mechanical, and foundational, have been professionally upgraded. What remains are the finishing touches: kitchen cabinetry, lighting, paint, and flooring accents. It's the ideal canvas for a renovation loan, a custom interior vision, or a long-term design buildout.

And the location? You're just steps from La Salle Gardens Park, a tree-lined green space designed by renowned landscape architect Charles A. Platt in the early 1900s. Neighbors gather here for weekend strolls, picnics, and seasonal events, making it the heart of a truly connected, welcoming community.

Here, you get front-row access to Detroit's architectural legacy in what many call the "quiet epicenter" of the city. You'll love the oversized lot, the two-car garage, and the rare front parking pad. You're minutes from Midtown, Downtown, shopping, and the freeway, yet tucked away in a neighborhood that feels like its own private enclave.

This is more than a home it's a foundation for your future, with the structure already in place and the creative freedom still yours.
