Description
Set deep on a nearly 2-acre lot, surrounded by thriving sugar maple and black walnut trees and a verdant rolling lawn, is michigan settler samuel white’s greek revival farmhouse, built around 1840. for the past 57 years, a historian, landscape architect, and arborist has, together with his family, been the most recent steward of this storied land. today, drive across the crackle of a gravel driveway, past a colonial-style split rail fence to a rare oasis from the hustle of modern life. sit on the wrap-around brick patio and take in the shade of mature hardwoods, lush evergreens, stunning perennial gardens, and the spring-fed creek that is nearby—all home to the calls of purple finches, pileated woodpeckers, and red-winged black birds. inside, this historic home includes a cast-iron, cawley lemay wood burning stove; oak and walnut timbers; tulip poplar woodwork; and maple floors. a discrete office addition includes an exposed brick wall, and wood floors that were salvaged from detroit’s greenfield village. this one-of-a-kind property is walking distance from thornton creek elementary and the novi public library; and just two miles from historic downtown northville. while this homestead includes a historic marker, it does not include historic protection. purchase this legacy property to protect it, or to make this stunning piece of land your own. highly rated northville schools
