About this home
Open House! Saturday, November 14th from 12pm-2pm. Well-cared-for brick ranch full of warmth, character, and years of thoughtful updates, featuring two bedrooms, an attached garage, and a generous, fenced yard. Sunlight pours through large picture windows into the spacious living room, where glowing hardwood floors meet a painted brick fireplace with floating shelves. Arched doorways and a built-in hutch add classic charm. The kitchen offers plenty of cabinet and counter space and leads to a handy utility room with laundry and direct access to the backyard. Down the hall, two comfortable bedrooms with hardwood floors share a full bath with a tub and a richly toned tile surround. The attached garage adds everyday convenience. Outside, the expansive backyard is shaded by mature trees and offers wide-open green space for gardening, play, or summer gatherings. Peace of mind comes with a long list of updates, including a new PVC sewer line (2014), new furnace and air conditioning (2015), water heater (2019), new roof and fresh interior paint (2025), and replacement windows installed over the last few years that carry a 35-year warranty. Close to local parks and schools, and just a short drive to downtown Royal Oak. Current property taxes assessed as a rental property, non-homestead. Welcome Home!

How it compares in Royal Oak
Over the last 90 days, 257 homes sold in Royal Oak for a median of $350,000, about $206 per square foot, and the typical one went under contract in 12 days. This home is listed at $289,000, or $238 per square foot, 16% above the city median, and has been on the market 33 days. Size, condition, updates and the exact street all move the number, so treat this as context. See recent Royal Oak sales or ask us for the comparable sales on this one.
Property taxes for a new owner
The current owner pays about $6,354 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $4,273 to $5,540 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 37.96 mills for Royal Oak City and Royal Oak schools, plus the 1% administration fee. Michigan resets a home's taxable value the year after it sells, so the seller's bill isn't a good number to budget with. See the math.
