MULTIPLE OFFERS DUE SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 13 BY 9 PM The house has history. The property has possibilities. And the combination is nearly impossible to find. Designed by noted architect David H. Williams Jr. and completed in 1935, this stately six-bedroom Colonial is set on three parcels in a prime Grosse Pointe Farms location between Kercheval and Grosse Pointe Boulevard. Exceptional architecture, gracious proportions and extraordinary grounds come together at 124 Merriweather in a way that is increasingly difficult to find. From the moment you enter, the craftsmanship takes center stage. A majestic foyer with a striking turning staircase introduces beautiful moldings and trim, arched doorways, hardwood floors, built-ins and distinctive Pewabic tile baths. The richly paneled library is a standout, complete with custom built-ins and a natural fireplace, creating the perfect home office, den or tucked-away retreat. The gracious living room is flooded with natural light, anchored by another natural fireplace and positioned to take in views of the patio and gardens. The formal dining room sits just off the kitchen, while the family room offers direct access to the brick patio, creating an effortless connection between indoors and out. Morning coffee, summer cocktail parties or simply enjoying the garden views, this is a home designed to be lived in and enjoyed. And then there are the grounds. Expansive, private and incredibly hard to find in this location, the three-parcel setting is where the property becomes truly exceptional. A tucked-away brick patio and fountain, reportedly designed by renowned American landscape architect Ellen Biddle Shipman, create a remarkable garden retreat surrounded by established perennial gardens and mature landscaping. Beyond, the expansive lawn offers extraordinary possibilities, whether envisioning a pool, sport court, expanded gardens or simply enjoying the luxury of this much private green space in the heart of Grosse Pointe Farms. Upstairs, the primary suite features an ensuite pewabic bath and multiple closets, while five additional bedrooms provide exceptional flexibility for guests, home offices, fitness, hobbies or creative spaces. A secondary staircase adds both function and another layer of classic Grosse Pointe character. Traditional craftsmanship meets unexpected personality throughout, with arches, millwork, fireplaces, built-ins and architectural details giving the home a character all its own. This is the architectural integrity and craftsmanship of yesterday, paired with the space and flexibility buyers are looking for today. Close to schools, The Hill and the resident park, 124 Merriweather represents a rare opportunity to own a substantial Grosse Pointe Farms home with architectural pedigree, remarkable grounds and an extraordinary piece of property.
