About this home
Welcome to 1510 Dorthea Road, a timeless 1930 Colonial filled with the character and craftsmanship that make classic Berkley homes so special. Situated on a prominent corner lot, this home blends original architectural details with comfortable, functional living spaces. Step inside to 9' ceilings on the main floor, original hardwood floors throughout, classic moldings and trim, and beautiful diamond pane double hung windows that fill the home with natural light. The spacious living room opens to a charming three-season room overlooking the tree-lined street corner, a perfect spot to enjoy the morning sun for coffee, reading, or relaxing at the end of the day. The extra-large dining room provides plenty of space for holiday dinners and family gatherings, while the eat-in kitchen features a bright bay window, stainless steel appliances, and a Bosch dishwasher. Just off the kitchen, a convenient mudroom provides access to the brick paver patio and generously sized yard, ideal for outdoor entertaining, gardening, or simply enjoying the seasons. Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom features a custom walk-in closet, while the second bedroom also offers a custom-designed closet for excellent storage. A large 2.5 car garage adds even more functionality with second floor for storage. With its distinctive 1930s architecture, generous room sizes, beautiful natural light, original hardwood floors, and classic details, 1510 Dorthea offers the character that's hard to reproduce in newer construction, all in the heart of Berkley. New roof installed in May 2026!
Pleasant Gardens, located between 12 Mile Rd and Catalpa Dr, is a residential and walkable Berkley neighborhood with tree-lined blocks and compact mid-century homes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the 12 Mile Rd and Coolidge Hwy crossroads, where small storefronts, patios, and sidewalk chatter set the daily rhythm. Local pillars include Berkley Coffee, Amici’s Pizza, and the Berkley Theatre, each adding a distinct, lived-in sense of place. Streets read as tidy and intimate, with ranches and bungalows set behind deep lawns and mature maples. Pocket parks and school grounds create open sightlines and casual gathering space. The layout favors short errands on foot and calm loops for an evening stroll.
