This historic beauty was completed in 1882 and stands as one of the oldest homes in Manistee. Built for a wealthy attorney and his family, this has become known as the (A.J.) Dovel home. This three story freshly painted brick home has a widows watch on the top floor where you get a private view of Lake Michigan and the Historic Downtown District.
A gorgeous modern kitchen and large dining are just the start of the updates here; you'll also find a large living room, great room and a cocktail room that takes you to the fenced in back yard and deck area. Five bedrooms and two baths upstairs are all recently redone, including electrical and plumbing. A detached two car garage, newly poured concrete driveway and wonderful landscaping complete this historic oasis.
