The Ransom Gillis House is a historic home located at 205 Alfred Street (formerly 63 Alfred before renumbering) in Midtown Detroit, Michigan, within the Brush Park district. It was designed by Henry T. Brush and George D. Mason and built between 1876 and 1878. The structure, unoccupied since the mid-1960s, was “mothballed” by the City of Detroit in 2005/2006 in hopes of restoration in the future. On November 1, 2015, the wholly refurbished home opened to the public after a thorough renovation in a joint project between HGTV, Rehab Addict Nicole Curtis, and Detroit-based mortgage lender Quicken Loans. The project resulted in an eight-part special that aired on HGTV.
