Soul and R&B singer Anita Baker, renowned for her impressive vocal range, has listed her home in Grosse Pointe, MI, for $1,850,000.

The stately brick house has four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a half-bath, all spread across more than 7,300 square feet.

But it’s the location that makes this pad so primo: 120 feet of water frontage and views of Lake St. Clair.

No interior photos are available at this point—most likely because the home has been vacant for quite some time—and the place needs a good bit of work.

A new owner could opt to tear down the current structure and put up a new building.

Baker apparently did have some work done on the home nearly a decade ago. But, per reports, she became entangled in a payment issue with one of her contractors.

Still, if you’re in the mood for a fixer-upper with a musical pedigree, this is the place.

The listing notes that “opportunity awaits to either restore it to its former glory or start fresh and build the lakefront home of your dreams. ”

The location is indeed superb for water enthusiasts and those seeking privacy. Situated on a cul-de-sac, the home is protected on a roughly two-thirds-acre lot.

History abounds in this area, as Baker’s home is where two historic mansions once stood—Horace Dodge and Rose Terrace.

The home’s future owner will enjoy strolling around two residents-only parks in Grosse Pointe Farms and Grosse Pointe City.

Baker is an 18-time Grammy nominee and and an eight-time winner. Her soaring vocals continue to wow audiences on her current tour, which includes upcoming stops in Atlantic City, NJ; HoustonDallas; and Los Angeles.
