Is a Piece of Pure Michigan History on Mackinac Island Back on the Market?

Few things scream 'Michigan' louder than Mackinac Island. So of course, it was a certainty that a home for sale on Mackinac Island would get purchased—even one with a price tag as hefty as this one. However, could this home be on the market yet again?

I was sent the most curious Facebook post recently that featured 7989 Algonquin Street on Mackinac Island as being for sale. Now, I did some digging, and here's what I've found...

Currently for sale on the Kidd & Leavy Real Estate page is this gorgeous, castle-like home for sale, with a price tag of $4.75 million.

And while that is certainly a hefty price tag, it's possible that someone has enough cash and enough desire to live on an island without cars to buy this home.

Take a walk back through time and see pictures of the inside of this stunning abode. And don't miss out on pictures of the views from the house either, they're equally as breathtaking!
