Carl E. and Alice Candler Schmidt House, Tudor Revival residence in Grosse Pointe Farms, Michigan.
The Carl E. and Alice Candler Schmidt House is a Tudor Revival residence in Grosse Pointe Farms, Michigan. The building features steeply pitched gable roofs, decorative half-timbering, and stone chimneys with views of Lake Saint Clair along the Lake Shore Road.
The house was built in 1904 and stands among the oldest residences in Grosse Pointe Farms. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.
The house carries the names of its original owners and reflects the lifestyle of successful businesspeople from that era. Visitors can observe the carefully maintained spaces that show how the upper-middle class lived in this area.
The property includes the original carriage house, which has been converted into a separate residence. It sits on lakefront land with direct access to Lake Saint Clair.
Only three families have owned the property since its construction, each making significant changes. Despite these modifications, the original architectural character of the house remains intact.
