The little German School is adorable. I didn’t know it existed. Very impressed by the rich history of homes in Farmington Hills.
The Edward Beals house looks so good! That’s my kind of dream house!
These historic homes are absolutely stunning. My favorites are the Royal Aldrich House and the Samuel Davis House.
These historic homes are stunning. I have passes through Michigan on a road trip once but next time I am there I’ll be sure to stop by these if they are in my way. So much to learn from them.
These houses are a must see! I didn’t know there were so many historic sites in Farmington Hills. Hopefully I can plan a visit to Michigan so I can see these sites personally.
The Edward E. Beals house appealed to me the most. Well, all of these houses are worth seeing in person. It would make me feel like I was transported back in time! I love the quietness of the surroundings. Something I have been craving for for so long!
I love houses with history and a story to tell. The Edward E. Beals and Gray-Spicer Houses are probably my favorites, very charming!
Third one is so beautiful, like from fairy tale. I would love to live in there.
Oh wow these homes really look amazing, I love historic homes!
Love that Samuel Davis house. Not just the history, but the styling of it is wonderful!
I just love the structure of the Edward Beals house. It just looks so cozy! I love looking at old homes and learning the history. We purchased a home 5 years ago and it turned 100 this past January. They just don’t build them like they use to.
I love architecture from past generations! I grew up in a 1800s era house and have always had an appreciation for old houses.
I haven’t seen any of these except Glen Oaks – quite pretty. Glen Oaks is now a banquet hall, though – my swim team in high school would hold our yearly end of the season banquets there.
I love to have my husband drive when we go places so I can look at all the pretty houses. Thanks for sharing – great list!
I really love the architecture of the houses, and I really love the simplicity and the fresh look of Botsford Inn. I really love to know about historical sites.
Wow, these are beautiful. Must be a lot of work to maintain these.
These look amazing. I love to drive around and visit historical homes.
