Iconic Cadillac Estate! This one-of-a-kind historic Dutch Neo-Classical residence was built in 1897 by lumber baron Frank J. Cobbs. Believed to be a Colonial Revival design by acclaimed architect George Mason—renowned for the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island and the Cobbs & Mitchell Building in Cadillac—this architectural treasure has been lovingly and authentically maintained by the same family for over 30 years. The home’s historical and architectural significance even earned it a feature in The New York Times. Crafted with some of the finest materials available to Cobbs, the interior features African mahogany, quarter-sawn oak, rift-sawn oak, birds-eye maple, and other specialty hardwoods. Six individually designed fireplaces serve as showpieces throughout the home, each constructed using period materials such as Grueby tiles, bronze, marble, and carved wood. Period lighting fixtures further enhance the warm, inviting atmosphere and respect the home's 19th-century origins.The home offers three ensuite bedrooms, a third-floor penthouse apartment, and a separate studio apartment in the basement. The updated kitchen features granite counters, William Ohs cabinetry, and premium appliances, with a butler’s pantry for added storage. The formal dining room is wrapped in rich Jacquard tapestry—carefully reproduced on the original European loom to perfectly match the historic fabric, offering a regal setting for entertaining. Set on three lots with a circular drive, brick parking area, mature gardens, and a covered porch, the home combines grandeur with comfort. Additional highlights include two new high-efficiency boilers, a fenced dog run, and a three-car garage. Ideally located within walking distance to downtown shops, restaurants, and Lake Cadillac, and just a short drive to Traverse City or Wexford County Airport.
