Nestled just off Bay City's historic Center Avenue, this meticulously restored 1915 English Tudor residence exemplifies the harmonious blend of architectural heritage and modern sophistication. Over a dedicated three-and-a-half-year restoration, the home has been transformed into a near-new dwelling, featuring comprehensive upgrades to its electrical, plumbing, and insulation systems, alongside the addition of a contemporary kitchen, deck, patio, and front steps. Every invaluable historical element has been thoughtfully preserved and rejuvenated, ensuring the home's legacy endures for another century. Architecturally, the home stands as a quintessential representation of Tudor design, characterized by its steeply pitched, multi-gabled rooflines, intricate Flemish bond brickwork, and decorative half-timbering. The prominent chimney, adorned with elaborate… Read More brick detailing, is flanked by diamond-patterned leaded glass windows, a hallmark of Tudor aesthetics. The exterior's authenticity is further accentuated by exposed rafter tails and meticulously restored stucco, reflecting the era's commitment to craftsmanship and quality materials. Inside, the residence exudes warmth and historical charm. Original features such as exposed ceiling beams, high ceilings, and ornate hardware have been preserved, complemented by modern enhancements that respect the home's character. The kitchen boasts honed granite countertops and is equipped with state-of-the-art appliances, including a new stove, microwave, and dishwasher. Antique beveled windows allow natural light to illuminate the hall, while a collection of restored antique light fixtures and two antique stained-glass windows add to the home's unique ambiance. All bathrooms are new construction, with one mid-century bath meticulously restored to its former glory. Climate control is modernized with a mini-split AC system on the second floor, and structural integrity is ensured with a new chimney cap, tuckpointing, fresh paint, and stucco repairs. Upstairs, original doors have been stripped and refinished, many retaining their built-in full-length mirrors. The anteroom off of the primary suite features a walk-in closet with built-in benches, providing both functionality and charm. The basement offers extensive storage solutions, including countertops crafted from reclaimed bowling alleys and a restored canning room with a tiled floor. An original coal room presents an ideal opportunity for a wine cellar. Modern utilities include a new 50-gallon hot water heater with a recirculation pump and a reconditioned 12-year-old boiler, with all steam and hot water lines newly insulated. This residence is not merely a home but a testament to the enduring allure of Tudor architecture, seamlessly integrating historical elements with contemporary comforts. It stands as a beacon of preservation and modern living, offering a unique opportunity to inhabit a piece of architectural history. Read Less
