Blissfield, MI Multifamily Home for Sale

The village of Blissfield, Michigan, is a classic example of a Midwestern Main-Street town. It’s surrounded by farm fields for miles around, but buyers seek out its historic homes and small-community setting. “Blissfield is like the best small-town community you can dream of. It’s still the number one place I tell my clients to look,” says Jeanee Gilson, owner of Michigan Living Real Estate, who grew up in Blissfield. “It started as a sugar beet farming community,” Gilson says. “They called the farms around the community the Fields of Bliss, which is where the name comes from.” The village’s downtown streets are still lined with late-1800s homes and mature trees from its early days. At the same time, new homes are being built outside downtown, and new coffee shops and boutiques thrive on Lane Street. Blissfield’s openness to growth while maintaining its community dynamic is what draws new residents. Downtown is the historic heart of the village. The residential streets around Lane Street feature farmhouses, foursquares, bungalows and prairie-style cottages from the late 1800s and early 1900s.
