About 15496 Rockdale St

This spacious 2-bedroom, 1-bath ranch has been fully remodeled and sits near the Redford border. Inside, you’ll find a renovated kitchen with granite countertops, luxe tile, and all major appliances included, plus added counter space for practical everyday use. The updated bathroom mirrors the same thoughtful style and quality. Natural light pours in through large windows throughout, including bay windows in both the kitchen and living room. Nearly everything is new: carpet, roof, furnace, plumbing, electrical, windows, and fresh paint inside and out. A full, unfinished basement adds plenty of storage or potential for additional living space. The large, fenced backyard is ideal for relaxing, pets, or play. The home was previously renting for $1,100/month before renovations and offers strong potential for investors looking to build a portfolio. Location is a win here!
