SAVANNAH, GA USA – Seabolt Real Estate, the #1 luxury real estate firm and the #1 independent real estate company in Savannah, Ga. by annual sales volume, is honored to list the immaculately restored personal estate of automobile magnate Henry Ford and his wife, Clara, at the prestigious Ford Field and River Club in Richmond Hill, Ga.
Top agents Kacey Howard and Danielle Hopper from Seabolt Real Estate’s Howard & Hopper Team represent the sellers for this historic listing at 170 Cherry Laurel Way, which features stunning views of Lake Clara and the Pete Dye-designed golf course at Ford Field and River Club. Listed for $4.495 million, this iconic four-bedroom home includes 4,215 square feet of immaculate interiors and 2,200 square feet of classic Southern porches, offering the ultimate in quality, luxury and style.
Originally built in 1870 on the site of Cherry Hill Plantation, this stunning estate blends state-of-the-art amenities with historic charm and stands apart as the only home at Ford Field and River Club that Henry Ford once lived in that is available to the public. Ford purchased the two-story main home in 1925 during a period when he purchased large plots of land in the area for agricultural experimentation. He and his wife, Clara, resided in the home for 12 years during the construction of their winter residence in Richmond Hill, Ga., which today serves as the Main House for Ford Field and River Club members and guests.
“This incredible estate has direct ties to Henry Ford and offers the rare opportunity to own a true piece of American history,” said Seabolt Real Estate Associate Broker Danielle Hopper. “The owners have restored this historic residence to its former grandeur and have added a wide range of strategic upgrades, including a gourmet kitchen with premium finishes, sophisticated marble baths, designer lighting and much more.”
Located on nearly one acre, this exquisite residence offers four stylish en suite bedrooms, a sunny home office, spacious chef’s kitchen with stunning views, scullery and separate owner’s entrance. A new 1,184-square-foot dogtrot garage includes parking for four vehicles as well as a private speakeasy and half-bath.
