Property Description

The personal residence of legendary architect Louis Kamper, designed and built between 1915 and 1917. One of Detroit's most significant private homes. Over 7,000 square feet of Neo-Renaissance architecture constructed with steel, limestone, and concrete. Inside, Kamper's artistry is on full display: mint-green Zodiac ceilings, a dramatic marble grand staircase, hand-carved walnut paneling, and a triple-layer entry of wrought iron, bronze-framed glass, and Chinese rosewood. The estate has received $866,000 in capital improvements since 2020, preserving every original detail while adding modern performance. The reimagined third floor features a refined library, office, and bourbon lounge with custom millwork, the ultimate private retreat. Additional highlights include full restoration of all windows and doors, 95% efficient Lochinvar boiler, high-efficiency central air and heat pump, whole-house generator, new copper gutters, roof restoration, EV charger, Viking appliances, Culligan water filtration, custom power driveway gate, and new garage doors. Outside, formal rose gardens and a private in-ground pool sit on nearly half an acre with new privacy fencing, outdoor lighting, and landscaping throughout.
