Step back in time and discover a rare piece of Bay City history. Built in the late 19th century by a master ship builder, this remarkable residence stands as a true testament to craftsmanship from an era when homes were built to last generations. With exceptional woodwork, enduring materials, and limited alterations since its original construction, the home has preserved an extraordinary level of historical authenticity that is increasingly hard to find. Inside, you’ll be greeted by a grand central staircase—a striking architectural focal point—complemented by a secondary staircase originally designed for household staff, offering a fascinating glimpse into the home’s original function and design. Many original architectural details remain intact, showcasing the artistry and precision of late-19th-century construction. The home offers four spacious bedrooms and a layout rich with character and potential. A large front porch invites quiet mornings and evening conversations, echoing a time when porches were an essential part of daily life and community connection. This property presents a unique opportunity for restoration, preservation, or thoughtful revitalization. For those who value history, authenticity, and timeless craftsmanship, this is more than a home—it’s a legacy waiting to be honored and brought back to life. A truly special offering for the historic home enthusiast, preservationist, or visionary buyer seeking something genuinely irreplaceable. The buyer will be responsible for removing all personal property remaining on the premises. There is no heat, water, or electricity currently operational in the home.
