Overview

Description

Some homes are built. Others are remembered. Welcome to the Hazel Park Bottle House, a truly one-in-a-million home and one of Metro Detroit's most unforgettable examples of folk-art architecture. Built in 1937 using more than 20,000 embedded glass bottles, this home has been beautifully remodeled while preserving the quirky character that makes it so special. Enjoy the best of both worlds: modern amenities, updated finishes, and comfortable everyday living paired with a historic exterior and basement that still tell the story. Offering 2 bedrooms, 1 full bath, approx. 1,225 sqft, an adorable lot, and a detached 2-car garage. Through the basement, a walkout leads to an above-ground flex room ready for a gas furnace or fireplace, with mini split AC potential. Create whatever your heart desires: studio, office, lounge, workshop, or private retreat. More than a home, this is a conversation piece, a local landmark, and a rare chance to own something unforgettable.
