A historic Detroit sector preserved with character
Founded in 1916 on Detroit’s northwest side, Rosedale Park is the largest Historic District in Michigan, with more than 1,600 architecturally distinct homes preserved with timeless details and classical charm. Rosedale Park’s neighborhood association, the Rosedale Park Improvement Association (RPIA), was formed in 1929 and continues to make strong efforts to maintain the area. This active pursuit helps provide the neighborhood with all the benefits of a safe, clean and small-town atmosphere that’s still a part of Detroit’s larger cityscape. “Residents looking for a close-knit family community with a historic look but a suburban feel, can look no further than here,” says Monique Carter, a real estate broker at Carter Associates Realty with over 27 years of experience serving the metro Detroit area. “Rosedale Park is beautiful and is the place to be.”

Timeless homes and beautifully crafted islands
Wide streets lined with towering grand oak and maple trees are accented by manicured central islands that display an alluring elegance to each neighborhood block. A mix of historic homes showcase many distinct architectural styles, from English Tudors to brick colonials and unique bungalows. Most homes were built from the 1920s to the 1940s and still hold on to historically intricate design details from these decades. Prices start in the $150,000s for more modest properties and can go up to $300,000 for two-story homes with renovations. Residents proudly maintain the streets and center islands, and the RPIA gives out yearly “Island Beautification Awards” for blocks that keep up with the best flower displays and overall maintenance.
Brick colonials in Rosedale Park provide three and four bedroom homes with plenty of space.

Neighborhood parks built for community athletics
Stopel Park No. 1 is Rosedale Park’s biggest park for outdoor recreation, gifted to the City of Detroit by a prominent real estate investor in 1928. It sits on 29.3 acres and features tennis courts, a basketball court, playgrounds, picnic areas and more. The park is connected to the 1.5-mile Lyndon Greenway, where residents enjoy walking paths and other pocket-parks along its trail. Nearby North Rosedale Park is another recreational hub, where locals can utilize the modern playscape or relax in the shade under one of Northwest Detroit’s oldest oak trees. This park also includes a popular baseball field, which is home to the Rosedale Grandmont Little League, and a soccer field, where the community’s Rosedale Soccer League huddles together for their seasonal games.

Localized hotspots popping up along Grand River Avenue
Grand River Avenue continues to ramp up its previous fast-food chain image with more localized establishments. Residents delight in a cup of coffee and light bites at Rosa’s, named after the owner’s great-grandmother who was one of the first black homeowners to move into the area in 1973. This cozy hotspot aims to make visitors feel like they are at “Grandma’s house.” Grand River Road’s Detroit Vegan Soul is Detroit’s first vegan soul food restaurant. Foodies love the all-plant-based comfort food lineup, with specialties like the soul platter, heaping with mac-n-cheese, collard greens and candied sweet potatoes. Royal Fresh Market is the go-to spot for groceries, and Greenville Shopping Center has other shopping essentials. From June to October, residents head to the Northwest Detroit Farmers’ Market on Scarsdale Street for fresh produce, meats and other baked goods grown or produced in the Southeast Michigan region. For some hyper-local entertainment, the neighborhood’s “Park Players” put on plays at the Redford Theater, one of Michigan’s oldest community theatre organizations.

An active neighborhood association and community calendar
Rosedale Park’s active community calendar flourishes with multiple neighborhood events each year. These include “June Day,” bringing together families for a community bike ride and summer activities, while the “Easter Egg Hunt” lets kids scour for treat-filled eggs outside the North Rosedale Park Community House. The North Rosedale Park Community House hosts the notable “Sunset in the Garden” fundraiser, to help support the neighborhood’s conservation efforts.

Easy accessibility to main Detroit highways
Not only do the historic homes and community attract residents, but so does the easy accessibility. “From where this neighborhood is located, you can hit any one of four freeways and get around very quickly,” Carter says when talking about highways I-96, I-696, I-75 and I-94. “It only takes 28 minutes to get to downtown Detroit to enjoy sporting events at Comerica Park, concerts at Little Caesars Arena, Campus Martius Park, the Detroit Institute of Arts and so much more.” The Detroit Airport is 15 miles away, and the Rosedale Express bus system on Grand River Avenue runs through the area and makes stops in downtown Detroit.
