Holiday Guided Tour: Main Residence
On Sunday, November 29, at noon, Ford House in Grosse Pointe Shores offers a holiday guided tour of the Main Residence, the lakeside home of Edsel and Eleanor Ford. Tickets are available online.
This tour looks at the holidays through the Ford family's traditions. The home is dressed with understated seasonal accents and natural elements, in keeping with Eleanor's taste, that highlight the architecture and each room.
Your guide moves from room to room sharing stories of family gatherings, traditions, and how Eleanor and Edsel celebrated the season.
The tour runs about 50 minutes and includes multiple staircases. The historic home has no elevator to the second floor, but a video tour of the bedrooms is available for guests with mobility challenges. Walkers, wheelchairs, and other mobility devices are allowed on the first floor only.
