About this home
***Boat Slip Included*** A Jewel on East River ~ Where History Meets Home*** Built in 1915, this American Foursquare once served as home to the Chief of the Grosse Ile Navy Base, and more than a Century later, it still carries that same Quiet Dignity. Set on a Sprawling, Parklike parcel along the highly sought-after East River Rd, and complete with a Private Boat Slip, this is the kind of property that reminds you why Grosse Ile is unlike anywhere else. Picture your mornings here: coffee in your comfy chair on the Screened-in Porch, the River close enough to hear, and your boat waiting just steps away. Afternoons on the water, evenings back home. This Home was made for living the good life, the kind where every day ends the same peaceful way. Step inside, and the character continues. A spacious Great Room welcomes you with Built-in Bookcases, Original Wood Floors, Oversized New Wallside Windows, and a Fireplace that Anchors the Whole Space. The Kitchen has been Beautifully Updated: Soaring Cabinetry, Quartz Counters, Newer Appliances, and a Subway Tile Backsplash that brings it all Together. Just off the Kitchen, a Bright Dining Room offers a rare gem of its own: a Built-in Butler’s Pantry, as charming as it is Functional. Upstairs, Four Bedrooms and a Renovated Full Bath continue the Home’s story with more Built-ins, Wood Floors, and Natural Light pouring in from every angle. A large Daylight Basement adds practical space for Laundry and Storage, while recent updates (Newer Furnace, Fresh Interior and Exterior Paint, Newer Chimney, Roof, Gutters, Sewer Line and Sump Pump ) mean the Big-Ticket items are already done, leaving room for your own Personal Touches where you want them. Outside, a Detached 2-Car Garage with New Garage Doors, Electricity and a Loft to add even more Storage Flexibility, plus a Koi Pond and a Yard Large enough for your own Private Garden! Special Bonus ~ Bus stop is at this corner AND a One Year Home Warranty is Included!

How it compares in Grosse Ile
Over the last 90 days, 55 homes sold in Grosse Ile for a median of $365,000, about $154 per square foot, and the typical one went under contract in 12 days.

Size, condition, updates and the exact street all move the number, so treat this as context. See recent Grosse Ile sales or ask us for the comparable sales on this one.
Property taxes for a new owner
The current owner pays about $7,114 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $7,184 to $8,481 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 44.19 mills for Grosse Ile Twp and Grosse Ile Twp 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.
