A meticulously restored, three-bedroom Victorian in Marine City, MI,<\/a> just hit the market for a modest $289,899.<\/p>\n

The 1,702-square-foot antique was built in 1882. Dubbed The Pink Lady<\/a>, the home features a modernized interior combined with period details.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe woman who owns it has been there 11 years and is an avid antique collector,\u201d says listing agent Joan Schinderle-King<\/strong>, of Realty Executives Home Towne Chesterfield. \u201cShe fell in love with the structure and wanted to bring back its integrity.\u201d<\/p>\n

Schinderle-King notes that the 142-year-old abode was originally owned by Capt. James Taylor<\/strong>, who commissioned architect George Barber<\/strong> to design the place. She adds that the current owner \u201cwent to great lengths to find the original blueprints of the home.\u201d<\/p>\n

Historic elements<\/h2>\n

Remaining historic highlights include preserved-hardwood floors, vintage door knobs; built-in cabinetry; jeweled, stained-glass windows; and a fireplace with a custom mantel.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe wanted to keep the aesthetic of the home back in the day,\u201d Schinderle-King explains. \u201cIn doing so, she modernized the home but kept the feeling of the era. All of the shelving in the kitchen is original. She added a beadboard ceiling, because the original tin ceiling was in horrible shape.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dining room<\/p>\n

A light-filled, windowed living room on the first floor offers a cozy fireplace.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you walk into the foyer and enter the main living room, there are 10-foot ceilings, and the space feels wide open,\u201d Schinderle-King says. \u201cThen you walk into a formal dining room that is almost like a perfect square. The owner respects the home\u2019s heritage and has restored it with real integrity.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nearby, a bright kitchen is fully outfitted with modern appliances, granite countertops, and a butler\u2019s pantry.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is a half-bathroom on the main level, so you could take it to the next level, if you wanted to, and transform the butler\u2019s pantry into a suite,\u201d Schinderle-King suggests.<\/p>\n

Bedroom<\/p>\n

A primary bedroom with a bonus room, that could be used as an office or nursery, is situated upstairs with two more bedrooms and a full bathroom.<\/p>\n

The 1,700-square-foot building also comes with a detached, gingerbread-style garden shed adorned with a chandelier. It\u2019s a space that would be ideal for outdoor entertaining or other purposes.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is so cute and could be used for everything from a she shed to a work-from-home studio,\u201d Schinderle-King notes.<\/p>\n

Unique locale<\/h2>\n

Walkability and waterside charm make this property uniquely appealing.<\/p>\n

\u201cMarine City is a waterfront community with a real artist vibe,\u201d Schinderle-King points out. \u201cThe next owner will probably want to live here year round and appreciate the walkable community. It could be a single person or a family, but I feel it is going to be used as a primary residence.\u201d<\/p>\n
