Property Description

Welcome to The Ransom Gillis House, a true masterpiece of Detroit's storied past, blending historic charm with modern luxury. Nestled in the vibrant heart of Brush Park, this meticulously restored home stands as a testament to timeless elegance and architectural brilliance. It has been featured in many motion pictures as an iconic symbol of Detroit's history and culture. Originally crafted in 1876 by renowned architects Henry Brush and George Mason, this Venetian Gothic marvel was brought back to life through meticulous restoration and renovation efforts. The kitchen is a perfect blend of vintage elegance and contemporary convenience. Custom-crafted cabinets with marble tops, tall paneled doors, and custom brass latches evoke the spirit of the era, while stainless steel appliances fuel all of your culinary adventures. For those who love to entertain, the finished garden level offers a bar area that's entertainment-ready, alongside an office, a gym, and ample storage space — making this home as functional as it is beautiful. The opulent primary suite is a sanctuary of comfort and style. The home's exterior facade is just as impressive, with elaborate landscaping and a private fenced yard. This is a home designed for both intimate evenings and grand galas. Perfectly situated between Midtown and Eastern Market, Brush Park is Detroit's premier neighborhood — a perfect blend of historic charm and urban sophistication. Originally known as "Little Paris," this area boasts some of the city's most beautiful and historically significant homes, many of which date back to the late 19th century. Today, Brush Park is the epicenter of Detroit's ongoing revival, surrounded by the city's hottest restaurants and amenities. Minutes away, you'll find world-class entertainment at Comerica Park, Little Caesars Arena, and Ford Field, as well as top-tier medical facilities like DMC and Henry Ford Hospital. 24-hour private neighborhood security. Once it's gone, it's gone for good—there's nothing else like this historic gem.
