The former private residence of Henry Ford's son Edsel and his family, this 60 room house was built in the English style in the 1920s. Since opening to the public in 1978, hundreds of thousands have visited Edsel & Eleanor Ford House to marvel at the extraordinary home and collection of original antiques and art; to stroll the 87-acres of beautiful, lakefront grounds; and to attend special events, classes and lectures. A third of the home is open to the guided tours.
