281 e palmer, detroit, MI 48202

Positioned in Detroit's Art Center District just moments from CCS, the DIA, Wayne State University, Midtown cafes, galleries, and cultural landmarks, this private, two-story residence delivers an unexpected blend of privacy, flexibility, and creative energy in the heart of the city. Inside, the space feels equal parts modern loft and boutique hideaway with soaring ceilings, oversized windows, soft natural light, and a rare tree-canopied balcony that creates a peaceful retreat above the city streets. The upper level features an open-concept living and dining space, spacious bedroom with walk-in closet, and a renovated bath complete with custom oversized tile, a floating vanity, illuminated smart mirror, and spa-inspired finishes. The kitchen offers clean modern lines, light maple cabinetry, a stand-alone island and effortless flow for everyday living or entertaining. On the entry level, an intentionally designed flex space currently functions as a stylish work-from-home studio but offers excellent potential for a second bedroom, creative suite, gym, or guest retreat. Additional highlights include a rare attached 1.5 car garage with exceptional storage capacity, street parking (no restrictions), in-unit laundry, updated finishes throughout, and a low maintenance lifestyle surrounded by some of Detroit's most iconic architecture, art, and innovation. Offered with the rare option to be sold fully furnished as a turnkey package, inquire for furnished pricing and details. A uniquely positioned residence ideal for creatives, professionals, faculty, students, or anyone drawn to the pulse of Detroit's cultural core.
