Hand-Restored 1889 Harbor Springs Home

Welcome to 465 State Street! Just a short walk to downtown Harbor Springs, this darling home was hand-restored by the current owners with a beautiful blend of history and modernity. Step through the front door to the vaulted ceiling of the kitchen and dining room, lined with old growth wood, and restored original wood floors. The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with fun red accents and lighted cutlery drawers. While much of the home features newer American Craftsman windows, the living room has some original windows that were reglazed, have original brass hardware and custom storm windows. There is a cozy loft bedroom upstairs and the main floor primary with ensuite at the back of the house with an additional storage loft above it. The half-bath has a hand-painted folk art sink and the office has plenty of shelving plus views of the garden. The backyard of the house greets you with a handmade white cedar picket fence and gorgeous, mature landscaping. The gardens feature mature apple and peach trees (apple pies and peach cobblers!), rhubarb, asparagus, grapes. Veggies thrive in raised garden beds. When the flowers bloom, you will get fragrant antique lilies (original to the gardens), trillium, and true-blue hydrangeas.

Homes like this, so lovingly cared for and restored, are a special Harbor Springs find!
