About 1351 Nicolet Place

Welcome to this thoughtfully renovated Mid-Century Modern townhome, designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe—one of the most influential architects of the 20th century. Part of a landmark Co-Op development within walking distance to Downtown Detroit, this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom home reflects Mies’s timeless architectural philosophy: clarity, simplicity, and an emphasis on detail. Upon entering, you're met with an open-concept living and dining space that captures the essence of Mies-ian design—clean lines, carefully proportioned steel, and expansive glass windows that invite natural light throughout the year (this unit has great sunsets in particular). The flow is uninterrupted and purposefully restrained. The redone kitchen features custom cabinetry, a tiled backsplash, and Fisher & Paykel stainless steel appliances, including a convection stove and combination microwave/convection oven for added versatility. Bathrooms are finished with Hans Grohe fixtures, Toto toilets, a heated towel rack, and radiant floors in the primary bath—providing comfort without compromising style. Closets have been outfitted with custom systems, and thoughtful upgrades throughout the home—such as additional outlets and curated finishes—show a deep respect for the original aesthetic while supporting a contemporary lifestyle. Special details that are specific to this townhome include: polished original concrete floors, a finished basement, authentic Louis Poulsen PH5 pendant lamp in the dining space, and more. All or some furniture available for an additional cost.
