A historic farm in Michigan’s third-largest city has hit the market — and the price looks good.
The Gillett-Beer Farm has been listed on Zillow with an asking price of $199,900. The farm is located at 4201 Chicago Rd., Warren and sits on an .89-acre property on Red Run Creek. Part of the building dates to the 1830s.
The house has three bedrooms and two bathrooms, a basement, and a one-car garage. There’s also a cottage on the property with one bed and one bathroom, and the barn was converted into an artist’s studio in the 1940s.
According to the listing, “This is a great opportunity for those who are interested in restoring a historic property as well those attracted by a large piece of land in a bucolic setting.”
The property is named for Peter and Sally Gillett, who moved to Warren from New York 1832. Art and Agnes Beer bought in 1946, with the Agnes B. Beer Junior High School named after her in 1969.
