About This Home

As of October 2019

Welcome to this historic 13 acre homestead, constructed in 1848 by Thomas B. Eldred, an early settler to the Climax area and a civil war captain. History abounds here, from stories of the underground railroad, to one of Michigan's only surviving post & beam constructed wind mill towers. This stately brick home still retains the character of the 1800s with original wood floors and paint-grained doors & trim, while enjoying many modern upgrades. Recent upgrades include roof & chimney re-builds, custom windows & a remodeled bath. The older wooden portion of the house is still quite rustic & could be used in many creative ways including a kitchen/dining expansion. Walk the wooded land, enjoy the pretty meadow & check out a rare opportunity where you could be making your own mark in history.
