Comments

Both residences have been demolished. The pond remains.

These are the homes pictured in slides #3, #4.

Both homes sat on the west side of Ridge Road just north of Cherry Hill. Both homes were built before 1951; the home at left was razed in the early 2000's and the home at right lasted until 2020. As "beaver' pointed out, the pond remains. The entire 4.2 acre lot is currently for sale for $1.2 million and will most likely be purchased for housing developments as much of this area has in the last 20 years.

Of note: the Bartlett-Travis House, built in 1840 and originally located at the corner of Warren and Canton Center Roads, was moved to the field across the road from these homes to 500 N. Ridge Road in 1989. Restoration began in 1994 by local carpenter Rex Harvey and was completed and opened to the public in 2002. The Canton Farmer's Market is held behind the home on weekends May through October annually.

525 N. Ridge Rd., Canton, MI 48187
