About This Home

1525 Edison Street

Step into timeless elegance in Detroit’s iconic Boston Edison Historic District. This stately 1916 colonial, restored in 2018, blends historic character with thoughtful updates—offering space, craftsmanship, and charm that are increasingly hard to find. Classic curb appeal welcomes you into a neighborhood celebrated for architectural significance. Inside, enjoy generous room sizes, original details, and a flowing layout for everyday living and entertaining. The main level features light-filled living and dining spaces with restored original trim, doors with skeleton-key hardware, and preserved details that reflect the home’s history. A gas fireplace adds warmth and ambiance. The kitchen is both functional and connected, featuring granite countertops, a subway tile backsplash, and abundant cabinetry, while staying true to the home’s historic style. Original windows have been restored, period-correct details maintained, and essential systems updated for peace of mind. Upstairs are six bedrooms across the upper levels—ideal for guest rooms, offices, creative spaces or growing households—plus two bathrooms, including a restored clawfoot tub. The layout offers privacy and versatility. The unfinished basement provides excellent storage and future potential, and the fully fenced backyard offers a private retreat. A detached two-car garage off the rear alley has been reinforced and updated with electric service and a new door—an uncommon bonus in historic homes. Major improvements include a new electrical panel, updated mechanicals, restored windows, improved drainage and gutters, and extensive preservation work that supports modern living. Located in a nationally recognized historic district, this home offers pride, legacy, and belonging—an opportunity to steward a truly special Boston Edison classic. Whether you’re drawn to the architecture, the history, or the craftsmanship, this home is ready to welcome its next chapter.
