    CITY OF LUDINGTON - Step into a rare piece of Ludington history with this beautiful, Victorian 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home originally built in 1867 by James Ludington as a lumber company boarding house, a certified Michigan Heritage Home. Carefully updated while keeping numerous historic features intact, this residence perfectly blends timeless character with modern luxury. The light-filled main level features formal and spacious living and dining rooms, a refreshed kitchen, plus a redone main-floor bathroom equipped with a convenient washer/dryer combo unit (with a full washer and dryer also available in the basement) and low threshold shower. A comfortable main-floor bedroom with double closets offers great flexibility while a versatile second main-floor bedroom has been converted into an office. Highlighting the home's exceptional craftsmanship is a beautiful staircase and a stunning sunroom with windows that open outward to create an open-air sitting experience. The rear mudroom provides seamless entry opening out to a private fenced backyard complete with pergola and leading to the 3-car garage (ideal for two vehicles plus a golf cart). Upstairs, the fully renovated upper level features a spacious primary bedroom boasting a corner sink and a California-style closet with an organizer, a second generous bedroom with a dressing room and double closets alongside a family room currently used as a media/theater room. The upper level also features a remodeled full bathroom with a raised shower/tub unit and access to a dry storage area. Recent improvements include fresh paint (inside and out), new flooring, a new furnace, central air, two new hot water heaters, and brand-new, unused kitchen appliances. Energy efficiency has also been prioritized with the complete removal of old insulation and the installation of new insulation backed by a lifetime warranty, along with new thermapane windows while thoughtfully preserving the original historic windows in the living room. Perfectly positioned just three blocks from Stearns Park and Beach on Lake Michigan, one block from Rotary Park for summer concerts and art fairs, three blocks from Downtown Ludington, and close to Ludington State Park, this property offers an unmatched lifestyle and the rare opportunity to own a home on prestigious Gaylord Avenue. Come experience it for yourself! Buyer to verify all information.
