8113 Saint Paul Street: $250,000

We’ll start in West Village, where this five-bedroom, two bath townhouse is coming in at the low end of the price range. You’ll need some of that cash (and more) for improvements, though. The townhouse has a lot of character, including fireplaces and built-ins, plus a very old-looking kitchen. It spans 2,300 square feet and it’s located in between the shops on Agnes Street and Kercheval in West Village. It’s listed through O’Connor Real Estate.

Over in Boston-Edison, here’s a 2012-updated four-bedroom brick home in our price range.

Over in Green Acres, here’s a tastefully updated three-bedroom home on a double lot. The new kitchen has a large island, quartz counters, and hardwood floors.

It’s in the northern part of Detroit, near the Meijer on 8 Mile, the shops on Livernois, Palmer Park, and Ferndale. It’s listed through Red Door Realty.
