    Native Detroiter here. It was always understood that these large and magnificent homes in the Boston-Edison area are beasts to heat, so combine that with the incredible updating and landscaping on view here, wow! Whoever did the maintenance and re modeling should get some kind of award. So impressive!

      Hot Water radiant heat. Keeps things toasty without breaking the bank. Forced air heating would be expensive.

    I have driven past this home several times while I was visiting my late fiancee (who was a proud Detroiter).. He exposed me to all the beautiful historical homes and areas of Detroit (Indian Village. Palmer Woods, Rosedale and his area Grosse Pointe).. He loved this city and was so proud of it.. Thank you Terrell Davis for loving this magnificent city and loving me.. RIH my love..❤️

    It’s an incredible house with an incredible past, unfortunately, I believe the more recent past is extremely sad. I wonder if it is sold yet , it’s an absolutely magnificent property and the price is really quite amazing considering the craftsmanship and the quality and the condition.

      The deceased owner, a very well known, accomplished & beloved Neurosurgeon, Dr. Devon Hoover brought a VERY DANGEROUS and MURDEROUS psycho into his house for sex. He shot him twice in the head and rolled up his body into a shower curtain and a rug (maybe) and stuffed his body into one of the rafter cavities in the attic. Utterly tragic.
