    What's special

    Built by the Hannah Lay Building Company in 1890 for the Royce family of Traverse City Ironworks. This home was in the Royce family until it was purchased by the current sellers 40 years ago - what a piece of history! Some other unique features to enjoy about this home are it's efficiencies - new windows throughout much of the home, and it's superb structure and craftsmanship make it feel as though it's only half it's age. The gorgeous custom built-ins, trim work, kitchen cabinets, and many other details have been meticulously constructed by the owner and master woodworker. This home has been very well cared for, and many updates have been made in the last few years as well - including a kitchen remodel, master bedroom and bath remodel, updated electrical, beautiful new landscaping with underground sprinklers, new roof in 2005, new water heater, lovely side deck with pergola, and lots of custom details! This is a superb location, with only a short walk to Front Street, the Boardman River, and West Bay. Oryana Natural Foods is only three blocks away, and Boardman Lake, City Opera House, the TART trail, and playgrounds at St. Francis are very closely within reach. This home is a must see - be in the center of it all with a stunning home that has quite a history!
