Step back in time and fall in love with this enchanting Vintage Victorian gem in the heart of the picturesque Village of Empire. Just a leisurely stroll from the sandy shores of Lake Michigan and the iconic Sleeping Bear Dunes, this historic home blends timeless charm in an historic village. Built at the turn of the century, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath treasure offers 1,310 square feet of character-rich space. From the 10-foot ceilings and original hardwood floors to the solid wood doors, unspoiled wide trim, and built-in china cabinet, many details reflect the craftsmanship of a bygone era. The formal dining room and kitchen with soaring ceilings and eat-in nook provide cozy spaces for gathering, while the sun-filled front porch and spacious back deck invite relaxation and entertaining. Enjoy the convenience of a main-floor bedroom with attached bath, a large laundry/mudroom, and upstairs clawfoot tub overlooking your private, fenced backyard—perfect for evening campfires. An oversized 26' x 30' garage with built-in workbench offers abundant space for vehicles, boats, and gear. Whether you're seeking a summer cottage, year-round residence, or a slice of Northern Michigan nostalgia, this "painted Victorian lady" is ready to welcome you home.
