Description: The industrial wealth that Detroit produced during its boom years gave rise to beautiful communities filled with homes of impressive size and finish. Palmer Woods, on the northern edge of the city, has a well-preserved stock of large, lovely homes - some of which are now for sale at bargain-basement prices.

A case in point is this stately Tudor. It's a bank-owned property built in the 1920s. Its fine details include wood wainscoting, arched ceilings and entryways, built-in cabinets and wood-burning fireplaces.

Rooms are large and plentiful with a formal dining room, Florida room, rec room and library, to name a few. There's a deck and patio in the fenced yard, and the detached two-car garage has a workshop.
