Overview

Historically known as the Arthur J. Lacy House and designed by renowned architect Clarence E. Day, this Sherwood Forest gem blends elegance, history, and family-friendly living. Recent upgrades include refinished hardwood floors on the main level and staircase (2022), a new roof (2022), and fresh interior paint (2025). A slate walkway with a slate and limestone front porch leads to the ornate entry and stained-glass crest inspired by the RMS Majestic, a detail echoed throughout the home’s original design. Inside, the living room features a grand bay window and a Pewabic tile fireplace mantle imported from England. The executive office offers rich wood details, built-ins, intricate molding, and a striking floral-inspired light fixture. The updated kitchen with marble-finish tile and stainless steel appliances opens to a breakfast nook and a butler’s pantry for extra storage and prep space. A dramatic brass-banister staircase leads to large stained leaded-glass windows overlooking the backyard. Create a dream primary suite by converting the adjacent bedroom connected to the green bathroom into a walk-in closet. The green bath offers a multi-head shower system while the other has a jetted soaking tub. The in-law suite boasts a massive bonus room and an exceptionally large cedar closet. Enjoy outdoor living on the slate deck and in the wrought iron fenced yard, perfect for entertaining. The basement provides abundant storage and plumbing for an additional half bath. Located minutes from the Avenue of Fashion, Detroit Golf Club, and Renaissance High School, with neighborhood events and 24-hour private security — this is the one to claim in Sherwood Forest.
