Located on the 14th floor at 222 Third Street in the heart of Detroit, this one-bedroom, one-bathroom residence offers a thoughtfully designed layout with a clean, contemporary aesthetic throughout. The open living and kitchen area is anchored by dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with natural light and frame stunning panoramic views of the Detroit River and the city skyline — a defining feature of this urban retreat. The kitchen is sleek and functional, outfitted with white flat-front cabinetry, a white quartz countertop, and a full suite of stainless steel appliances including a range, over-the-range microwave, and refrigerator. Light hardwood flooring carries through the main living areas, complementing the bright, neutral palette. The bedroom is a serene haven, benefiting from its own floor-to-ceiling window showcasing the cityscape below. Exposed industrial ductwork and a concrete ceiling lend an urban loft character, while the generous proportions allow for comfortable furnishing. The bathroom is spa-inspired, featuring large-format tile flooring, a frameless glass walk-in shower with white subway tile, and a long floating vanity with a white stone countertop and ample storage. A hallway and dedicated closet complete the layout, adding practical storage solutions. The overall ambiance is modern, airy, and distinctly metropolitan.

Historically one of the economic and cultural powerhouses of the Midwest, Detroit is full of people who are working towards redevelopment and revitalization. Known as the origin of the automobile industry, the Motor City is moving towards a future of economic opportunity with roots far beyond the world of cars. The cost of living is low while rental rates for apartments, condos, and houses are highly attractive for any budget.
Monuments paying tribute to Detroit’s rich history are everywhere while astonishing architecture and public artwork is scattered throughout the city. As the birthplace of Motown, Detroit has a long tradition of producing legendary musicians like Diana Ross and Stevie Wonder. This tradition continues today and it’s easy to find live performances from every genre.
The city is a great destination for sports lovers as one of the few American cities with major leagues in football, baseball, basketball, and hockey.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
