DETROIT -- A large, 100-year-old home in Detroit's historic Indian Village neighborhood is on the market for $735,000.

Built in 1917 for Eleanor Ford's sister Josephine Clay and her husband Ernest Kanzler, a Ford executive, 2501 Iroquois is one of two homes with backyards that stretch all the way from Iroquois to Seminole St.

Architect Leonard Willeke oversaw the design of the 7,319-square-foot Arts and Crafts-style house, while landscape designer Jens Jensen designed the original grounds.

Jensen also designed the grounds for the Edsel and Eleanor Ford estate 'Gaukler Point' in Grosse Pointe Shores, after the Fords moved out of their Indian Village honeymoon home, located just down the street from the Kanzler-Clay estate.

Indian Village was once home to many of Detroit's auto executives and business leaders. The stately neighborhood sits close to Belle Isle and is an 8-minute drive from Downtown Detroit.

"There's a massive demand to live in Indian Village and a real lack of supply, " said the home's listening agent Ashley Tyson, with the Loft Warehouse.

Tyson said the home is "immaculately preserved and all the historic details remain in tact with thoughtful and tasteful updates."

"It's subtle and magnificent and wonderful all at once," she said, adding that the previous owners invested over $700,000 into the home over 30 years to modernize some of the amenities.

The kitchen's original ice boxes have been retrofitted into modern refrigerator and freezer boxes.

The master bathroom features a claw-foot tub, a shower with speakers, a telephone near the toilet and even a small refrigerator to chill drinks.

"It's like being in a spa," said the home's current owner Charles Blanchet II, 39, who is selling the home to move back to San Francisco for work.

Blanchet said he will especially miss the neighbors.

"This is classic Detroit," said Blanchet of his welcoming neighbors, who once heard he was sick and brought him dinner, enough to feed him for 3 days.

With six bedrooms, three full baths and two half-baths on three floors, the house could feel overwhelming, but "it's not audacious," said Blanchet.

"You walk in, its cozy. It's a home," he said.

The living room is paneled with Mahogany wood, and a sunroom connects the salon to the dining room.

"The ability to decompress in the house, its like you're on vacation," said Blanchet. "It's good for the soul to just exist in that house."

Unique amenities include a walk-in wine cellar, a dog washing station, a dish-warming oven, a heated, two-car garage with a car lift and a speakeasy-style door that connects two bedrooms on the second floor.

Old intercom boxes can be found throughout the house, and a foldable table top sits on the railing of one of three staircases, where house staff might have set linens or trays of food down between floors.

The house at 2501 Iroquois last sold in June of 2016 for $660,000 after being listed at $744,500.
