About the Listing 108345 - RC399434

Meadow Brook Mansion never knew she had a sister. Until now. Some homes are built. This one was curated. Pass through the iron gates of Mill Race and follow 600 linear feet of historic Detroit brick paver to a three-story French Tudor estate on 3.56 private acres, set on a natural peninsula of the Clinton River. Built in 1974 by George A. Fuller, Mill Race incorporates treasures salvaged from Detroit's grandest estates: original windows, cabinetry and hardware from Rose Terrace; elements from the Alfred Glancy and J.P. Schlotman estates; crown molding handcrafted for the Earl of Sepan Castle in England; and Old Town Detroit street lamps. A leaded glass entry opens to a two-story foyer with a grand circular staircase built in part from the original Gone with the Wind set pieces. A $2 million renovation elevates the estate throughout. The remodeled kitchen features a center island, coffered ceiling, custom arabesque tile, quartz counters, premium appliances and a 2026-renovated butler's prep kitchen. The 2026-transformed primary suite includes a custom walk-in closet, bath and adjoining 920-square-foot glass solarium overlooking Stoney Creek. The renovated daylight basement offers a rec area, wet bar, full bath and flex/guest suite. The third floor provides 1,400 square feet of drywalled space. Infrastructure includes heated attached and detached garages, workshop, upgraded HVAC, whole-house generator, well, septic, sprinkler and lighting. A 3,859-square-foot brick-and-slate guest house with utilities and new HVAC offers limitless possibilities. The Clinton River wraps around the estate, with a private stone island surrounded by water, creating a dramatic setting for a wedding arch, children's fort or waterfront fire pit. Impossible to replicate. This one is a legend.
