MOTOR CITY ICON AND ARCHITECTURAL PEDIGREE Pass through the stately stone pillars of this landmark Grosse Ile estate and enter a''time capsule''of Detroit's Golden Age.Originally custom-built for Charles Fisher co-founder of the Fisher Body Company and VP of General Motors by the preeminent architecture firm Smith, Hinchman, and Grylls, this nearly 10,000 sq. ft. masterpiece stands as a significant and rare surviving example of the Fisher family's architectural legacy. Set far from the road on a picturesque 3 acre lot, the property offers unmatched privacy and 200 feet of prime Detroit River frontage with sweeping views of Canada. From the grounds,enjoy an incredible architectural panorama: the historic Grosse Ile Lighthouse, the iconic Ambassador Bridge, and the stunning new Gordie Howe International Bridge.THE INTERIOR: A PRIVATE MUSEUM OF CRAFTSMANSHIP The grand foyer, finished in luxurious Italian marble, leads to a spectacular sun porch on the east side of the home.This vantage point offers breathtaking vistas of the Detroit River and scenic Canadian shoreline.Soaring 12-foot ceilings are adorned with plaster medallions and astounding crown moulding,reflecting the "GM-spec" standards of its original owner.Meticulous design elements featuring cherubs, flora, and fauna are coupled with robust,high-end materials.The formal living room,anchored by an exceptional carved Carrara marble fireplace with egg and dart details,provides an elegant setting for a 1915 Steinway baby grand piano.Adjacent, the paneled library with built-in bookcases offers a quiet retreat or an executive home office. CULINARY EXCELLENCE AND ENTERTAINING Designed for large-scale hosting,the chef's kitchen features a center island, wall oven, cooktop, and a bright breakfast nook with built-ins.A full butler's pantry with a wet bar connects to the formal dining room,which features a hand-carved wood fireplace and expansive river views. Surrounded by windows,the Florida room functions well as a family room,offering abundant natural light as well as warmth with moody paneled mountain ash walls,coffered ceilings, and a bronze chandelier that is a true work of art.Three bathrooms on the main floor, including two formal powder rooms, are perfectly situated for guests.PALATIAL PRIVATE SUITES AND UTILITY The upper level features 7 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms (6 full/3 half). Several bedrooms boast private sun porches to enjoy the natural island scenery and cooling river breezes.The primary suite is a massive retreat with an adjoining dressing room, dual tiled bathrooms, and custom walk-in closets with built-in wardrobes.A cavernous walk-up attic provides limitless storage.The lower level is equally impressive,featuring original terrazzo flooring,a workshop,and a walk-in vault for wine storage or valuables.A Bilco door entry provides easy access for transporting large items.THE GROUNDS:THE ULTIMATE MARITIME LIFESTYLE Outside, marvel at over 200 ft of river frontage for docking, fishing, and water sports-a front-row seat to the Great Lakes'shipping channels.An illuminated brick paver path leads to a riverside patio for witnessing glorious sunrises over the banks of Ontario.The property includes an opulent 6-car garage with carriage doors,electric service,and its own half bath.
