The home is preserved and open to the public through the generosity of Eleanor Clay Ford. It remains as a witness to the past, as part of the history of the area and as an enrichment in the lives of future generations.
The Fords built their home as a place where they could integrate their family's activities and interests with global business responsibilities and concern for the local community. The home, its contents and grounds, along with the legacy left by the Fords, all reflect the important role that design excellence played in the family's lives.
Since opening to the public in 1978, hundreds of thousands of visitors 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.
See for yourself why this nationally recognized estate has been features in Architectural Digest, Garden Design magazine, A&E's America's Castles series, HGTV's Dream Drives and Christmas Castles series and NBC's Today Show.
