About this home
Single Family · Built 1905 · Historic
Downtown Traverse City doesn't get more walkable than this. You're a short stroll from the waterfront, Front Street coffee shops, restaurants, and the parks and marinas that make this city worth living in year-round. The house itself is a four-bedroom Victorian with genuine bones, featuring a covered front porch, rear deck, main-floor kitchen and laundry, and a backyard with room to breathe. The detached two-car garage is a bonus you won't take for granted once winter hits. It needs someone with a vision, and the location makes that investment worthwhile. Properties this special in this neighborhood don't come up often.
