No, your eyes are not deceiving you. In a quest to find expensive-ass houses in metro Detroit, we came across this $4 million listing that is actually located within the city limits.
Yup, $4 million. In Detroit.
2712 Cass Ave., right in the lungs of Midtown, is an eight-bedroom home with four full bathrooms and one half-bath. Built in 1880, the 3,344-square-foot home boasts 15 rooms, including two living rooms, two full kitchens, and four fireplaces.
All of that is impressive, but clearly this hefty price tag has more to do with the potential of the house than its current amenities [read: it's right by the new Red Wings Arena].
