Property Description

Turn of the century with the revival of Dutch colonial design at its finest! Fantastic oak wood craftsmanship throughout the home! Located on a tree-lined street giving the feel of "old world charm". Blocks from this home, to the West, is the East side of U of I's campus. The charming architecture of this 1897 built Dutch Colonial makes it a very unique structure and one to appreciate. The covered front porch offers a great space to relax on a Summer afternoon or take in a sunny autumn day. This porch was completely redone with all new wood and columns 5 years ago. Beautiful solid wood door, original, welcomes you into the home with oak floors and gorgeous woodwork showcased in the staircase and the fireplace mantle and hearth with unique carvings, as you enter the home. Solid oak built-in bookcases flank each side of the original glaze tiled fireplace. To your right is the large living room with two large windows that face South and East bringing in plenty of natural light. Large classic oak functioning pocket doors separate the living and dining rooms. The dining room is large and also hosts a very large window facing to the East and the beautiful original copper light fixture, matching the same one that is displayed in the living room. In the corner of this room is a nicely redone half bath, complete remodel in Sept. 2025 with new tiling, vanity and toilet, but keeping the original light fixture. Walking through is the kitchen which has a window facing West over the sink that draws light into that space. To the right, leads to the rear yard or to your left to the entryway hallway with an expansive closet under the staircase for great storage. All windows on the main level are the original windows. Access to the full basement is just off the kitchen. Basement offers a large amount of storage and the washer and dryer are located in this space, along with all the mechanicals, 100 amp breaker electrical box, and sump pump. Several rooms and spaces in the home have been recently painted, including the ceiling in the two story staircase. Some wallpaper remains and mimics grass paper which gives a nice texture to the walls. Walking up the solid oak staircase, there is a large window facing to the West with a beautiful stained glass window with a lightly etched geometric design. Hanging in this space is the original chandelier that lights this staircase leading to the second floor where the three bedrooms and a large full bath reside. All oak floors on second level of home, as well, with the exception of the tiled bathroom. There is plenty of closet space in each room, plus a large hallway closet. The largest bedroom to the right of the top of the staircase has a unique alcove with a small closet and on the opposite side of the room is another set of closets. Note: third bedroom has had newer, but matching oak flooring installed. This room also has a very large walk-in closet. The large bathroom has been completely remodeled in two different phases with the most recent done in Sept. 2025. All the windows on the second floor are newer replacements. Backyard is a cozy space with a uniquely designed 1.5 car carriage house door design garage. Gravel driveway allows for up to 4 cars to park. Don't wait to see this beauty and charm in this historic architectural home!! They don't build them like they use to and this one is a gem!
