The E. O. Grosvenor House, also known as the Gamble House, is located at 211 Maumee Street in Jonesville, Michigan. It was built as a private home for Ebenezer O. Grosvenor, and now operates as the Grosvenor House Museum. It was designated a Michigan State Historic Site [1] and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977.[2] It is considered one of the most magnificent residences in Michigan.[1]
History
Ebenezer O. Grosvenor was a politician who served in the Michigan Senate, one term as the Lieutenant Governor of Michigan, and two terms as the State Treasurer of Michigan.[1] He arrived in Jonesville in 1840, establishing a store and a bank in the town.[3] Grosvenor had this house constructed in 1874 from plans drawn by Elijah E. Myers.[1] Ebenezer Grosvenor lived in this house until his death in 1910.[4] After his death, four generations of Grosvenors lived in the house, after which it was turned into a rooming house.[3]
In 1960, the house was purchased by the Gamble family,[1] and in 1977 it was sold to the Jonesville Heritage Association.[5] It now operates as the Grosvenor House Museum[6]
Description
The E. O. Grosvenor House is a rectangular red brick two-story Victorian Italianate house placed on a stone foundation.[1] The perimeter contains multiple bays, columned porches, and other projecting elements. It is decorated with brackets, dentils, and a fielded panel frieze.
The interior contains thirty-two rooms, all with twelve-foot ceilings.[1] There are eight Italian marble fireplaces, all differently colored, a grand staircase, and Egyptian-themed walnut window valances.
