FERNDALE, MI - You don’t come across functioning urinals in the kitchen of a home very often. If ever. It’s just one of the numerous unusual attributes you’ll find at this home, which just hit the market.
Located at 3050 Burdette St. in Ferndale in Metro Detroit, this home is listed for $165,000. It has three bedrooms and one bathroom and is just under 1,000 square feet in size. It’s being featured as MLive’s House of the Week. Homes are showcased every Wednesday from across the state.
The home is basically move-in ready besides maintenance and upkeep of a house built in 1958. It also depends on what changes you may or may not want to make - like whether or not to keep the urinals in the kitchen.
“The owner designed it as his bachelor pad and he lived at the home for a long time before moving,” Heidi Wilson with Keller Williams Advantage told MLive.
“It’s definitely move-in ready. They’re original hardwood floors so you may want to refinish those and somebody may want to make some changes if they turn it more into a family home, so they may want to remove some of the “special features.” So, the home is priced appropriately around those things.”
More unusual features are the outdoor basketball court with a Detroit Lions theme, a “tiger print” hand-painted wall in one bedroom, the bathroom “throne” and the removeable platform in the great room for stadium seating.
“Normal” features of the home include a new wet bar, large fenced backyard and, as we mentioned, hardwood floors.
The home is also located across the street from Harding Park which has a playground, athletic fields, a roller hockey rink and picnic areas.
“The home is located close to everything,” added Wilson. “It’s just 15-20 minutes to get to downtown Detroit. Ferndale is a nice, fun community. The downtown has great restaurants and shopping. The same with nearby Royal Oak.”
Here is the official listing of the home. You can contact Heidi Wilson with Keller Williams Advantage at (248) 259-9634 or via email.
