440 Spear Street Saugatuck, MI 49453

Historic Gem in Saugatuck. The 20 year period following the Civil War was the Golden Age of building in Saugatuck-Douglas. This home is often sited as being one of the older homes on '' the Hill''. The hill is the residential area located above the busy commercial center, but an easy walk to shops & restaurants. This unparalleled location, on quiet '' upper Spear '' cannot be duplicated. The deep well treed lot runs 196 ft back to Simonson Dr. Whether the new owner wants to build a guest cottage/studio off that street, or sell the extra parcel area the potential is there. The main house, Italianate Farm style, is a blend of quality materials, elegant proportions & unpretentiousness. It has been renovated & maintained to perfection. An ample sized main floor master suite with dressing room & full bath is duplicated in size by a second floor master with equally renovated bath & dressing area. Wide plank pine floors, leaded glass cabinet, and a spacious screened porch across the front, add extra charm. The kitchen is smaller, but has expansion room toward the rear of the house, if a larger kitchen/family area is desired. First and foremost with this jewel are charm, location and attention to every detail. room & full bath is duplicated in size by a second floor master with equally renovated bath & dressing area.
