About this home
Inviting bungalow that lives larger than you’d expect, offering an open floor plan, a generous kitchen, and a fantastic walkable location. A large covered front porch is the perfect spot to wave to the neighbors before stepping into a bright living room with crown molding, arched entryways, and a big picture window. The open layout flows into the formal dining room and a large kitchen with plenty of counter space, shaker-style cabinetry, a subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, a peninsula with room to gather, and a walk-in pantry. Just off the dining room, a nice-sized office with a door wall leads out to the rear porch, patio, and private fenced backyard. A main-floor bedroom with a built-in closet system and a full bath complete the first level. Upstairs, the primary bedroom is a cozy retreat with vaulted ceilings, built-in niches, and a walk-in closet, plus an unfinished attic for extra storage. The full basement offers laundry, glass block windows, and tons of open space to make your own. A detached two-car garage rounds it all out. Walk to Westborn, Woodward, and downtown Royal Oak. Welcome Home!

How it compares in Berkley
Over the last 90 days, 74 homes sold in Berkley for a median of $350,000, about $208 per square foot, and the typical one went under contract in 10 days. This home is listed at $315,000, or $290 per square foot, 39% above the city median, and has been on the market 26 days. Size, condition, updates and the exact street all move the number, so treat this as context. See recent Berkley sales or ask us for the comparable sales on this one.
Property taxes for a new owner
The current owner pays about $5,100 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $5,101 to $6,408 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 40.28 mills for Berkley City and Berkley 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.
