Royal Oak Wow! House: Sleek Blend of Contemporary and Classic Style

ROYAL OAK, MI — This week’s Royal Oak Patch Wow! House was built in 1923, before spa tubs, vessel sinks and other contemporary fixtures were a thing. Meticulously remodeled in 2008, it exquisitely blends in contemporary details while retaining original eye-popping details like classic built-ins, gleaming hardwood floors and elaborate moldings.

The home at 215 Hendrie Boulevard in Royal Oak, located on a prime street in the coveted Royal Oak estates neighborhood, is available for $829,000 in a listing by Dan A. Gutfreund of Signature Sotheby’s International Realty.

What we love about it: Everything, but the Zen-like bath off the huge master suite has a particular allure with his-and-her vessel sinks, a huge shower and jetted tub that invites relaxation.

The light-filled living room has patio access, the formal dining room and family room both feature gorgeous built-ins that set a tone for classic character in the Colonial brick home. We also love the screened porch and brick patio drive.

The newer chef’s kitchen has generous storage space, and the third-floor in-law suite is perfect for longer-stay guests.
