Step inside Detroit’s largest private residence — the legendary Bishop Mansion in the heart of Palmer Woods. At nearly 40,000+ square feet, this Tudor Revival masterpiece is one of the most extraordinary historic homes in Michigan… and today, it’s listed for just $1,000,000. Originally built in the 1920s for Bishop Michael J. Gallagher, the estate has served as the home to bishops, archbishops, NBA royalty, and visionary owners who began restoring this nationally recognized property.
