Truly one of a kind, this historic treasure is unlike anything else in South Haven.
The Purple House welcomes you with its charm before you even step inside. Out front, a patio lounge area invites you to slow down and enjoy the surroundings. Imagine sipping your morning coffee as the neighborhood comes to life, unwinding with a favorite book in the afternoon sun, or sharing an evening glass of wine while the soft summer breeze rolls in. This outdoor space sets the stage for the unique character and thoughtful details waiting for you inside.
Step through the door, and the historic appeal unfolds. The original wood staircase, a beautifully crafted centerpiece, leads you through the home, perfect for that first grand walk-through as you explore each thoughtfully designed space. A stained-glass window casts colorful, shifting light across the entryway, creating a peaceful spot to pause and admire. The decorative fireplace adds a touch of Victorian charm, making the entryway an inviting place to greet guests or simply enjoy a quiet moment.
The charm of The Purple House extends into its spacious main level, where two large living rooms offer a blend of comfort and historic character. Original details, from the woodwork to the tall ceilings, create an inviting atmosphere for gathering with family or relaxing after a day of exploring South Haven. These generous spaces are perfect for everything from cozy evenings to lively conversations, inviting you to appreciate the home’s timeless design and rich history at every turn.
The adjoining dining room continues to reflect the home’s thoughtful design, offering a welcoming setting for shared meals, game nights, or starting new traditions. With its inviting layout, this space balances practicality with understated elegance, making it adaptable to any occasion.
The kitchen seamlessly combines its vintage character with modern functionality. A vintage sink recalls the home’s history, while updated cabinetry and appliances ensure every convenience. An additional dining area makes this space as versatile as it is stylish, whether you’re preparing family meals or enjoying a casual breakfast.
The main-level bedroom, featuring a queen bed and attached half bath, provides a peaceful retreat. Conveniently located and thoughtfully designed, this cozy room offers a quiet spot to relax while staying connected to the home’s distinctive aesthetic.
Upstairs, The Purple House reveals four distinct bedrooms and three full bathrooms, each thoughtfully appointed with antique dressers and elegant woodwork. The Upper Twin Suite offers a snug escape, while the Upper Level Queens Suite, with two queen beds and an en suite bathroom, is ideal for families or couples. The Master King Suite serves as a private sanctuary, complete with a king bed and en suite bathroom. The spacious Kings Suite, featuring two king beds, provides comfort and flexibility for larger groups. Each room stands out with its own character, contributing to the home’s one-of-a-kind appeal.
The Purple House places you at the heart of everything South Haven has to offer. Just steps from downtown, you’ll find a vibrant mix of local favorites like Clementine’s, known for its iconic onion rings and comfort food, and Su Casa, serving up authentic Mexican flavors. Explore unique shops like SoHa Surf Shop, where you can pick up beach gear or stylish apparel for your time by the water.
And when it’s time to hit the beach, the shores of Lake Michigan at South Beach are just a quick stroll away, offering sandy shores, picturesque sunsets, and the perfect spot to unwind by the waves.

We really enjoyed the front porch walking to almost everything we did.

It is a very nice property close to beach and downtown shopping. Parking spot are only two. With third being in front of garage but if you park there you will get a ticket from the city for blocking the sidewalk. There is parking close by but it does require some walking or shuttling cars around. But we enjoyed our stay very much with 5 adults and two toddlers. I would definitely recommend the property and would definitely stay there again. It has 3 King , 3 queen and 2 twin beds. With 3 bathrooms.
