That has alway been the pricey area of Detroit until the recession

Love, care, and nurturing, go a long way

So lovely to see this home restored to glory. Older houses have style unlike modern homes.

Beautiful!! A little bit of love and care transformed this home!

This house shouldn’t be abandoned.😢 We are many people without the possibility of buying a house and rent is turning highly expensive that’s insane 😢 Thanks to those who restored them and give them life and dignity so they can be beautiful again 🏠

I wonder why it was abandoned? Does anyone want to hazard a guess? lol

So lovely. Too sad that many of these brick beauties fell to the wrecking ball. Great restoration.❤

I've worked in Detroit working on homes like these, and the architecture inside is worth saving. Work of art, wish we could see the interior.

Seeing that really brought joy to my heart. God bless to those that restored. A beautiful home.

It looks like the type of house that might be haunted.

I've been watching a few restoration videos of homes in Detroit. The homes were gorgeous, beautiful brick architecture. In its day Detroit must have been a beautiful place to live.

Superb, keep the heritage & old buildings, because the builders took their time & we’re proud of their trade in them days ..

Beautiful Restoration Absolutely Stunning!!!

They are such beautiful homes but unfortunately so many have been destroyed. This is a prime example of how beautiful/cool/classic and wonderful they can be. Detroit had some of the most beautiful neighborhoods and manisons in the country at one time.

Not destroyed but left uncared for to rot beyond repair. Then they cry "Gentrification!" when certain people do fix up the ones still standing.

@kaioiamo1503 They've been destroyed by time and economics. People moved when the factorys closed. They became rented and left behind to fall in. There is no theme.... it is what it is. The shit starts falling down and the city gets rid of them.

Back in the day, these grand ladies were considered mansions. They were built for the automobile company executives. When they sent our manufacturing to other countries, the houses were either lost due to the inability to make mortgage payments or abandoned. It will be nice to see more of these beautiful grand ladies brought back to their former glory! Perhaps an entire block of them! Please continue to post more of these!

Those are beautiful homes. Glad to see them restored.

This is one of the few times u actually see a good story about a house in Detroit. Most of them are houses getting abandoned maybe burned down and then demolished.

These are so beautiful!! I love that the history was saved and restored. Much nicer to see the character and workmanship that was appreciated in the past.

Right ? It doesn't compare to the cheap, shoddy, ugly tract homes, that's built nowadays !

Thank Nicole Curtis. I love her and her show Rehab Addict. She believes in true and proper restoration of old homes back to their original charm. Her attention to detail is astounding.

Wonderful. Thank goodness some where saved. That block had many more but were torn down unnecessarily. That’s sad for history. Too late

Grew up in Westland Mi..This house & MANY in Detroit are absolutely gorgeous...never see quality builds anymore. Cheap & shitty materials...all brick . Awesome 👍😎

What beautiful old homes. Thank God people saw their beauty and restored them to their previous glory.
