Holiday Guided Tour: Main Residence
Edsel & Eleanor Ford House offers a guided holiday tour of the Main Residence on Friday, November 27, from noon to 5 p.m. at Ford House in Grosse Pointe Shores. Step inside the Fords' lakeside home and see how they celebrated the season. Tickets are available online.
Eleanor preferred understated elegance, so the house is dressed with carefully chosen seasonal accents and natural elements instead of elaborate displays. They suit the architecture and show off each room.
Your guide moves room to room, sharing stories of holiday gatherings, family traditions, and how Eleanor and Edsel marked the season.
The tour lasts about 50 minutes and includes multiple staircases. The historic home has no elevator to the second-floor bedrooms, but a video tour of that level is available for guests with mobility challenges. Walkers, wheelchairs and other mobility devices are allowed on the first floor only.
