Single-Family Homes

Historic village. Dexter’s side streets lie mostly east of downtown, on a hill that rises from the Huron River and its tributary Mill Creek. There are some small postwar Cape Cods here that often serve as affordable starter homes, as well as larger and newer ranches. Ranches and Cape Cods sell for $150,000 to $250,000. Historic showpieces start at $300,000.
