Property Description
Welcome to one of the finest Victorian homes in St. Clair County! This historic gem offers freighter-watching views of the St. Clair River, just minutes from downtown Pt Huron. Set on .36 acres overlooking Desmond Landing, this beautiful 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offers waterfront living without the maintenance and taxes of owning a seawall. The home was once owned by Captain Tom Reid, the legendary Great Lakes salvager featured in The Salvager: The Life of Captain Tom Reid on the Great Lakes. Pride of ownership is evident throughout this thoughtfully updated home, where historic character blends with modern convenience. The updated kitchen features a coffered ceiling, double ovens, pot filler, custom range hood, chandeliers and abundant workspace. The adjoining butler's pantry features a beautiful barrel-vaulted ceiling and self-closing pantry. Original details include curved oak wainscoting and trim surrounding the turret, push-button light switches, fireplace mantel and tile, and beautifully preserved oak hardwood floors. The spacious dining room and parlor have comfortably hosted gatherings of 40"“50 guests, while the family room showcases river and boardwalk views. Second-floor laundry adds convenience, with additional hookups in the basement. The primary suite features a highly functional closet and renovated bath. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a back porch, patio and expansive yard perfect for watching freighters and boats pass by. Low-maintenance vinyl siding replicates the home's original cladding. Updates include a new hot water heater in 2025 and shingles in 2015 and 2023. Original knob-and-tube wiring remains in place and is functional. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Port Huron history with exceptional craftsmanship.
