Property Description
Spanning nearly 5,000 square feet across multiple levels, this extraordinary Rivertown penthouse is a true collector's property - where architecture, craftsmanship, and panoramic views of both Detroit and Canada converge. Designed for both intimate living and large-scale entertaining, the residence opens to an expansive 1,750-square-foot private outdoor terrace - an exceptional extension of the living space and one of the largest of its kind in the city. The fully reimagined 2022 kitchen is a statement in design, featuring creamy-white custom cabinetry, illuminated vitrine accents, and a sculptural island with secondary sink. A custom staircase by Detroit artist Logan Merry creates a striking architectural connection to the main living areas. Throughout the home, bespoke elements define the experience: a hand-carved marble wood-burning fireplace, restored cathedral wood doors, and thoughtfully curated materials that elevate every space. The primary suite is a private retreat, complete with a freestanding copper soaking tub positioned for skyline views, an expansive mosaic glass steam shower, and a fully enclosed water closet. A secondary ensuite features a dramatic black granite soaking tub, continuing the home's theme of elevated, spa-like living. Floor-to-ceiling windows with motorized shades frame the city beyond, while every detail - from material selection to spatial flow - reflects a disciplined, design-forward vision. Two dedicated parking spaces in a gated adjacent lot complete this exceptional offering. A truly rare opportunity to own a bespoke penthouse of scale, character, and presence in Detroit.
