Description
There’s something special about a home that has stood the test of time - and at 848 E State Street, that story begins in 1895, the very year Traverse City was incorporated. For over a century, this home has quietly watched the city grow around it, housing generations of families along the way. Now, it’s ready for its next chapter. Set on a desirable in-town lot, this 700 square foot home is located in one of downtown Traverse City’s most sought-after neighborhoods. Whether you envision a full renovation that honors its history or a fresh start with new construction, there are multiple possibilities. The lot lends itself well to a new single-family home or a duplex, making it an attractive option for both homeowners and investors alike. Location is where this property truly shines. Just a short walk brings you to the heart of downtown - restaurants, shops, parks, and the beach is only a 5-minute walk away. It’s the kind of setting that has always held value and always will. Opportunities like this are increasingly hard to find - a property rich with history, set in an exceptional location, and ready for new vision.
