Step into a piece of Traverse City history with this beautifully preserved 1865 home. Nestled in the heart of the distinguished Boardman neighborhood, part of the National Historic Registry, and located just 1.5 blocks from West Bay and a half block from The Little Fleet and vibrant Front Street. This residence offers the perfect blend of timeless charm - original hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, elegant pocket doors, custom built-ins, a butler’s pantry - paired with modern convenience - the hassle-free gas fireplace, EV car charger, and high-speed fiber optic internet. The 2,100 sq ft main home features 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, including a main floor in-law suite (access suite through private exterior door or through "hidden door" behind mirror (see photo in listing) in the main entry of home), previously used as a very profitable 5-star short-term rental, which would make for a spacious well-appointed main level primary. Additionally, the property also features a 2-car heated garage and a brand-new 625 sq ft accessory dwelling unit (ADU) with 1 bedroom, 1 full bath and gorgeous open plan living room and full kitchen space—ideal for multigenerational living, guests, or rental income. This is a rare opportunity to own a historic treasure in one of Traverse City’s most walkable, bikeable and sought-after neighborhoods. SHOWINGS START SATURDAY MAY 24th!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
