Description
A Once-in-a-Lifetime Opportunity in Grosse Pointe Farms
Welcome to Fox Hill, one of Grosse Pointe Farms’ most exclusive estates. Set on 2.4 rolling acres with panoramic views of Lake St. Clair, this iconic property blends timeless elegance, modern luxury, and natural beauty.
Designed for grand-scale entertaining, indoor and outdoor spaces flow seamlessly—from expansive bluestone patios, koi pond, and putting green to a sparkling pool, solarium, and greenhouse.
A dramatic two-story marble foyer with floating spiral staircase and trompe l’oeil ceiling welcomes guests. Walls of windows frame stunning lake views throughout.
Formal spaces include a step-down living room, two elegant powder rooms, richly carved library with hidden doorway, and a mahogany wet bar. The dining room opens to a sunlit solarium.
The chef’s kitchen boasts a butler’s pantry, scullery, and home command station. Anchored by a stone fireplace, the open kitchen includes a large island, casual dining, and access to the pool terrace. A vaulted wood-beamed family room with granite wet bar links to the pool house and greenhouse.
Upstairs, the primary suite is a serene retreat with lake views, limestone fireplace, Venetian plaster walls, and a custom coffee bar. Two distinct dressing rooms offer style and function.
A spacious in-law suite sits above the living room with its own fireplace and walk-in closet. There are six en-suite bedrooms in total, plus a large laundry room, massive linen room, and a bonus room off the back staircase.
The finished lower level features a playroom, full bath, and ample storage.
Car enthusiasts will love the motor court, climate-controlled garages for eight cars, and port cochere. The carriage house offers a customizable opportunity.
Taxes are non-homesteaded. Sale includes two parcels. Gated access and an extensive security system for privacy.
