Step into history with this remarkable 122-year-old home, cherished by the same family since its construction in 1903. Built by custom homebuilders, this residence showcases exceptional craftsmanship throughout. Features include a solid brick exterior, soaring ceilings, plaster interior walls, an impressive two-story fireplace, oversized rooms, extensive moldings and trim, and thoughtfully designed basement details.
The structural integrity and quality of this home are truly outstanding—what many refer to as having “great bones.” Lovingly maintained over the years, the home is fully livable as-is but would benefit from cosmetic updates such as fresh paint, new carpeting, and modern appliances to bring it to its full potential.
One of the most surprising elements is how quiet and serene it feels inside—thanks to the superior construction. Outside, the backyard offers inviting spaces ideal for both relaxation and entertaining. Also, there are huge attics over the house and garage that can be used for storage or converted to additional living space. Dive into the revitalization of the Downtown Bay City area!
