Property Description
Not just a home - a total conversation piece built to last! Perfectly positioned on a prominent corner lot just blocks from downtown Royal Oak, this architecturally distinctive shipping container residence is one of Michigan's most recognizable modern homes. Spanning more than 3,500 square feet above grade and nearly 5,000 square feet including the finished lower level, it proves that exceptional design and everyday livability can exist in the same space. The open-concept interior is defined by soaring ceilings, exposed steel details, and an abundance of natural light that pours through the home's expansive windows. Clean architectural lines are balanced by warm finishes, creating spaces that feel both striking and inviting. Designed for the way people live today, the home offers four bedrooms, three full baths, one powder room, expansive living and entertaining spaces, and a finished lower level with endless flexibility for a media room, fitness studio, or additional gathering space. One of the home's most compelling features is its seamless connection to the outdoors. Multiple outdoor living spaces extend the home's footprint, including a private open-air courtyard at the heart of the residence, a second-floor balcony that offers a quiet retreat above the city, and a detached guest suite tucked behind the attached two-car garage - ideal for visitors, a private office, creative studio, or multigenerational living. Outside, the prominent corner setting creates an unforgettable presence while remaining just a stone's throw from Royal Oak's restaurants, boutiques, parks, pickleball courts, farmers market, and nightlife. Less than 15 minutes to downtown Detroit and Birmingham. Moments from M-1, I-75, and I-696. For the buyer who values exceptional architecture, innovative design, this home is unlike anything else on the market!
