Historic charm meets thoughtful modern living in this beloved 1870s farmhouse - an iconic piece of Traverse City history that lives as beautifully as it looks. Known as the Thirlby farmhouse, this rare downtown residence sits on three city lots and has been beautifully renovated to blend original character with timeless updates. Inside, you'll find three bedrooms and three full baths across a bright and inviting floor plan. The kitchen is a standout - completely reimagined with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances - while still honoring the home's roots. Exposed brick, original wood floors (mixed with newer additions), and custom woodwork lend warmth and texture throughout. The spacious primary suite features a raised ceiling, eye-catching brick accent wall, and a brand-new private bath. A cozy loft space offers flexibility - ideal for a home office, reading nook, or playroom. A fenced backyard and room to garden or entertain offer even more to love, and the detached 2+ car garage has plenty of room for bikes and kayaks - perfect as the house is in close proximity to Boardman Lake, the Commons, and downtown.
