One of Bay City’s most iconic historical homes! The Edgar H. Foss residence is truly one of a kind that is rich in detail, craftsmanship, and architectural significance. Designed by architect J. Philip McDonnell, this historic estate blends traditional and French Eclectic design, creating a timeless presence in the community. Perched in a prominent location overlooking Carroll Park, the home sits on over 1 acre and offers 3 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and a guest house connected to the 2.5 car garage with original glass-paneled doors. The guest house includes 2 bedrooms, a bonus room, living room, full kitchen, and a 4-piece bathroom; recently updated with new flooring, carpet, and electrical. Inside the main residence, the primary suite features a dressing room with dual closets and built-ins. The library showcases a stately fireplace, half bath, and French doors, while the formal living room impresses with floor-to-ceiling windows. A charming three-season sunroom provides the perfect space to enjoy morning coffee or quiet evenings. Additional highlights include the original pantry, the preserved icebox, and rich architectural details throughout the home that has been well-cared over its lifetime. This remarkable home is not just a residence, it’s a piece of Bay City’s history.
