From the Michigan State Historic Preservation Office website:
Built circa 1869 for Silas Lane, a pioneer of Vassar. The huge two-story frame house is situated at the top of a bluff, and is in excellent condition. The house has an asymmetrical-plan, and is clad in horizontal clapboard siding. It features typical Italianate features, such as a hipped roof, a dentilated cornice with paired brackets, and a two-story bay window. The Wellemeyer House is one of the oldest frame houses in Tuscola County.
