The Crown Jewel of Petoskey — Elegant Simplicity, Timeless. Step into a home where history & modern living exist in perfect harmony. Originally built in the late 1800s, and masterfully restored in 2010; this extraordinary residence offers a rare blend of preserved character & updated functionality—truly unmatched in both antiquity & livability. Every major system has been thoughtfully upgraded, including electrical, plumbing, and roof, allowing you to enjoy historic charm without compromise. From the moment you arrive, the home captivates. Sunset views over Lake Michigan provide a breathtaking daily backdrop—imagine summer lawn gatherings that linger into the evening, ending on the inviting front porch as the sun dips below the horizon. The rooftop widow’s walk offers yet another stunning vantage point. Inside, craftsmanship takes center stage. Gorgeous plaster walls and ceilings, soaring pocket doors, expansive windows, and exquisite quarter-sawn, tiger-striped oak woodwork create a warm yet refined atmosphere throughout. The main level is designed for both entertaining and privacy, with pocket doors allowing each room to be seamlessly opened or closed as desired. The kitchen flows effortlessly into a butler’s pantry and full bath, leading to a brand-new heated sunporch—perfect for year-round enjoyment—with access to a private patio and side yard. A covered walkway connects to the spacious 2+ car garage with loft above. Upstairs, the second floor offers four light-filled bedrooms & 2 full baths, complemented by a modern laundry room & a wide, comfortable hallway. A secondary staircase provides convenient access back to the kitchen. The fully insulated third floor serves as a gateway to the widow’s walk—an architectural gem that elevates this home to something truly special. Built late 1800's by railroad executive, Mr. M.F. Quaintance, in the Victorian Italianate style. The original detailed work of Native Americans & local artisans still infuse the home.
