Welcome to 817 Fernwood, a charming Colonial with picture-perfect views of Fernwood Park! Set on an elevated lot, this home offers light-filled living spaces, original doors with vintage hardware, and hardwood floors throughout most of the home.
The kitchen has been beautifully updated with granite counters, stainless steel appliances including a new GE range, and stylish finishes. Bathrooms have been tastefully modernized, and new back windows with a lifetime warranty bring in abundant natural light, while the freshly painted exterior adds to the curb appeal.
Enjoy additional living space in the finished basement, perfect for a family room, home office, or playroom. Outdoor living is also a highlight with a tiled front porch, a new sitting area, and a private backyard patio ideal for entertaining. A brand-new 2 1/2 car garage with 10' ceilings and storage above adds incredible functionality.
Ideally located in the heart of downtown Royal Oak—just steps from Fernwood Park and minutes from Farnum Park—this home blends timeless character with modern updates in a truly special setting.
