About this property
Shipping container home! Featured in several movies, shows, and articles.
This very unique home is built from 7 shipping containers. Great space for entertaining, and only 15-20 min drive from downtown Detroit! Golf course 2 blocks away, with many other local amenities, festivals, and attractions. This was the first shipping container home built in Michigan. The home has been featured in many shows and articles as well. Great opportunity to stay in a unique home within a wonderful city. Open to events, wedding showers, movie/commercials ads, and more.
This unique property was created with 7 shipping containers. The home is a great space for entertaining with its very open flow. Large garage (cars can be removed) space is heated and cooled for events. Just off garage is a large deck with BBQ, fire pit, and small yard. The home also features a 48amp wall charger for EV’s.
Guests will be given a unique keypad code for the stay. Home is very safe with several cameras monitoring outside.
