From the moment you step into the Grand entry ( that measures 19x10) you will fall in love with yesterdays charm with all the amazing windows and woodwork! Leaded windows, library panel wainscotting, an amazing staircase and tall ceilings are just a start. The room sizes are immense and feature lots of closets, two huge pantries, tiger wood quarter sawn oak display rails, two solariums and an upper foyer that doubles as a game room as it measures 38x14. Upper landing also has a wall flanked with original built-in bookcases and a gorgeous palladian window. The staircase itself features a sitting area at its lowest level and the most amazing window at its midpoint! There are 5 fireplaces that are in various stages of being restored. Formal Dining room is separate and there is a lovely coffee nook (9x9) between it and the solarium for relaxing and reading a great book. If you are looking for a family room the main floor master would make a great one with a fireplace, sitting area under an arched wall, two large closets and a bathroom right off of it. Porch has been reconstructed and measures 41 ft long by 12 ft deep across front with a wrapped side to the east of home. This home is on the Historic homes registry and seller has lots of its history to pass on. Even better than this is the fact that there have been so many updates to give you today's comforts. All windows that are not historic have been replaced with tilt vinyl clad ones. There are two separate heating and cooling systems in this home to help make it easy to control comfort. The rooms that have been drywalled and updated have complete new wiring and the breaker box is circuit breakers but still has a small box of fuses so seller is including the next new breaker box and other construction materials that he has purchased plus more original woodwork for the next buyer to finish with. Most of the projects remaining are those that are cosmetic... the hard part is done. Home was added to the National Historic Palaces registration in 1992. Illinois Historic Preservation Agency 2016. Seller has not found any knob and tube in this home during his renovations. There is no limit to the possibilities of this home!!!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
