But Grosse Pointe, Michigan, one of the country's most spectacular luxury home communities, is located within easy access of one of the country's major urban centers. Grosse Pointe's tree-lined streets are lined with perfectly manicured lawns and gardens, along with several waterfront parks, golf and tennis facilities, picnic grounds and yacht clubs. Although homes come in all sizes in Grosse Pointe, the town is best known for its luxury residential real estate. In fact, your distance from Lake St. Clair is often a major determining factor of the price you'll pay for a home in Grosse Pointe.
Residents enjoy views of the surrounding waterways without sacrificing the four seasons.
Grosse Pointe Shores, the smallest in terms of population and area, is the most exclusive of The Pointes' five municipalities due to its location along Lake St. Clair. Grosse Pointe Shores also enjoys the amenities of the Grosse Pointe Yacht Club. The estate was built in 1926 by world-renowned architect Albert Kahn. Its grounds were designed by landscape architect Jens Jensen. The Ford House offers a trip back in time not only for the art enthusiast, but also for antique lovers.
