Property Description
A Rare Piece of Livonia's History!
Step into this remarkable home, built circa 1820 by one of Livonia's earliest settlers, Peter Kator. Recognized as one of Livonia's historic homes, it once housed the Gilt Edge Cheese Factory and even served as a stop on the Underground Railroad—a truly rare find!
Inside, the home's rich history is evident in its unique layout and timeless character. The primary bedroom is tucked away in its own private wing, featuring two versatile sitting rooms—perfect for a dressing area, home office, nursery, or workout space. The other two bedrooms are also thoughtfully separated, with one offering a private staircase leading to a cozy sitting area before entering the room.
While this home proudly retains its historic charm, it has been beautifully updated to meet modern needs. The renovated kitchen features elegant glass-front cabinetry and a stunning stone island, while the two full bathrooms blend modern touches with the home's vintage appeal. Other updates include new luxury vinyl flooring throughout, an electric fireplace in the living and updated lighting.
Outdoor living is just as inviting! Enjoy morning coffee in the sunroom, stay organized with the mudroom, or spend a summer evening relaxing on one of your covered porches. The new Trex deck overlooks a spacious, tree-lined yard with a new privacy fence. Plus, the home's exterior has been freshly painted, and it has a brand-new roof.
Located in a quiet cul-de-sac with no HOA fees, this home is just across from city parks and Fox Creek Golf Course. Historic homes like this don't come around often—don't miss your chance to own a piece of Livonia's past!
This is a must-see! Schedule your private showing today.
