When searching for a home, if you hear the term ‘carriage house,’ it’s probably the real thing: an historic building that at some point housed horses and carriages. The DiMora Team are real estate experts in the Northville and Novi neighborhoods and we know that the carriage houses you see today are either updates on the old structures or new homes built in the style of a carriage house. The living space will be in either the actual carriage house on the second floor, or an adjacent building. You might also see carriage houses renovated as garages with a residential space above—perfect for multigenerational families, a kid who comes home from college for the summer, or an in-law unit.
