Agent Remarks: Indulge in a piece of history with this stunning Colonial Revival cottage built for Ernest Batchelder's chief colorist and assistant, F.L. Compton in 1916. Compton lived in this iconic home for more than 60 years, creating a true artistic haven of pretty gardens and wonderful tiles that are still on show throughout. The beautiful tile surrounding of the fireplace was reportedly a wedding gift from Batchelder to Compton, ensuring a unique welcome as you step inside this treasure trove of a historical home. There is a formal dining room to the right while the beautiful eat-in kitchen is set at the rear of the layout, along with the den and sunroom. All three bedrooms are contemporary in style, including the three baths. Original period features have been lovingly maintained, from the hardwood floors to the crown molding, and modern updates include a tankless water heater, central air and heat, and a 200-amp electrical panel.

    This charming Colonial Revival cottage is a City Landmark and a true treasure-trove of Batchelder tile. F.L. ''Bud'' Compton, Batchelder's chief colorist and assistant, commissioned its construction in 1916 using the ''Pasadena'' plan by the Aladdin Company of BayCity, Michigan. During the 63 years that Compton lived here, he enhanced the house and gardens with many wonderfully designed and colored tiles. Ernest Batchelder reportedly created the fireplace himself as a wedding gift to Compton and his bride. The classic floor plan features three bedrooms, two and three-quarter baths, eat-in kitchen, dining room, den and a sunroom filled with Batchelder's delightful animal and plant motifs. The adjacent paved patio has an enchanting Batchelder fountain and brick pathways that lead to the spacious back yard. Picturesque grounds offer intimate seating areas, formal plantings and ample room for gardening, as well as Compton's workshop and garage. Period details -- hardwood floors, built-in cabinetry, rich moldings, multi-pane wood windows and lathe and plaster walls -- are found throughout. Recent upgrades include professional landscaping, 200 amp electrical panel and central heat & air. Here is a rare opportunity to own a very warm, inviting and historic home.
