Holiday Guided Tour: Main Residence
Edsel & Eleanor Ford House leads a holiday guided tour of the Main Residence on Sunday, November 29, at 4 p.m. at Ford House in Grosse Pointe Shores. You'll see how the Ford family celebrated the season in their lakeside home. Tickets are booked online.
Inside Edsel and Eleanor Ford's historic lakeside home, the holiday decor follows Eleanor's taste for understated elegance. Instead of elaborate displays, a few carefully chosen seasonal accents and natural elements highlight the architecture and each room.
As you go from room to room, your guide shares stories of holiday gatherings, family traditions, and how Eleanor and Edsel celebrated with intention and a focus on togetherness.
The tour runs about 50 minutes and includes multiple staircases. There's no elevator to the 2nd floor bedroom level because of the home's historic nature, but a video tour of the bedrooms is available for guests with mobility challenges. Walkers, wheelchairs and other mobility devices are allowed on the 1st floor only.
