Henry Ford Square House, Historic residence in Garden City, Michigan, United States.

The Henry Ford Square House measures 31 feet on each side and features a mansard roof, clapboard siding, and a center-entrance front facade with window caps.

Built in 1888, the house served as the first residence of Henry and Clara Ford until 1891, when they relocated to Detroit for Henry's position at Edison Illuminating Company.

Clara Ford designed the floor plan of the house, which included four primary rooms: a kitchen, a parlor, a sitting room, and a bedroom.

The residence moved to its current location at 29835 Beechwood Avenue in 1952 to accommodate the construction of the Southfield Freeway.

Henry Ford constructed the house using timber from the property, which he processed in his own sawmill before building the structure with assistance from a carpenter.
