Property Description
Step into a rare blend of historic Detroit charm and Spanish-inspired elegance at 1200 Porter Street, a stunning, cash-flowing duplex and Airbnb nestled in the heart of Corktown's coveted historic district. This beautifully updated home features a renovated kitchen adorned with imported, hand-painted Talavera tile from Mexico, a nod to the Spanish design. The original Pewabic tile, crafted right here in Detroit, adds timeless authenticity and character. The bathrooms and living spaces have been thoughtfully modernized, while preserving the home's historic soul. Currently operating as a successful Airbnb and long-term rental, this property offers exceptional income-generating potential. With a large lot and layout ideal for adding an additional unit, the opportunity to expand and maximize value is clear. Outdoors, enjoy an perennial garden oasis, with curated rose beds, mature plantings, and a towering ginkgo tree that creates a peaceful, suburban feel - just steps from Michigan Central, Downtown Detroit, and all the energy of the city's cultural and culinary renaissance. Whether you're an investor, owner-occupant, or visionary developer, this property is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Corktown's past and future.
