Property Description
Welcome to one of Saginaw's most iconic historic estates. Nestled on approximately 1.5 private acres, this stately English manor is surrounded by some of the city's most cherished landmarks—adjacent to the Japanese Tea Garden, overlooking Lake Linton with Ojibway Island as your rear neighbor, and directly across from Hoyt Park and the Saginaw Children's Zoo. Few homes offer a setting as private, picturesque, and irreplaceable as this. Offering just under 5,000 square feet, this remarkable residence features 5 bedrooms and is ready for its next owner to restore it into the showpiece estate it was meant to be. Timeless craftsmanship is showcased throughout with breathtaking original hardwood floors in virtually every room, extraordinary woodwork, custom built-ins, three fireplaces, and a grand staircase leading to an impressive library loft lined with bookshelves. A rare feature for a home of this era, the residence is equipped with a three-story elevator, providing convenient access to all levels. Additional highlights include a charming second-floor terrace overlooking Lake Linton and the Japanese Tea Garden, a walk-up third-floor attic with endless possibilities for additional finished living space, and an attached oversized two-car garage connected by a breezeway—another uncommon luxury for a historic home. While awaiting thoughtful updates, the home's remarkable architecture, exceptional craftsmanship, and one-of-a-kind location provide an extraordinary opportunity to create one of Saginaw's finest historic residences. Properties of this caliber—surrounded by the city's most beloved landmarks and filled with irreplaceable character—rarely become available.
