Property Description

A rare opportunity to own one of Traverse City's most iconic historic homes... This magnificent Neo-Classical Revival estate offers the chance to own a true piece of local history. Originally built for the son of a prominent lumber baron, the property was painstakingly restored to its original grandeur through a multi-year restoration that preserved its remarkable craftsmanship, architectural details, and timeless elegance. The residence features 9 bedrooms, 15 bathrooms, and an impressive 15,918 square feet, including the unfinished basement and lower level of the carriage house. Throughout the home, period details blend seamlessly with modern comforts, creating a property that is both grand in scale and welcoming in character. In addition to the main residence, the carriage house includes two separate 2-bedroom apartments, each with a full kitchen and in-unit washer and dryer. The original stables below offer additional possibilities for storage, recreation, event space, or future expansion. Whether envisioned as a private family estate, multigenerational retreat, seasonal residence, or income-producing property, the flexibility of this offering is truly exceptional. The property has successfully operated as a well-known inn and bed and breakfast, allowing future owners the option to continue hospitality operations, generate income from the carriage house apartments, or simply enjoy the estate as a remarkable private residence. An extensive collection of period antiques and furnishings is also available, allowing the next owner to preserve and enjoy the property's unique historic character. Words and photographs cannot fully capture the craftsmanship, scale, and sense of place found throughout this extraordinary estate. Opportunities to acquire a property of this significance are exceptionally rare. Schedule ample time for your tour—you will want to experience every detail of one of Traverse City's most remarkable homes.
