Beautiful 19th century 4-5 bedroom, 1.5 baths plus a shower only room off the master. Home sits on a corner lot with a view of the Illinois and Fox River in the winter and fall. There are original hardwood floors throughout most of the home. Full separate formal dining rm with double French doors opening to an all-season family room. The home offers natural light throughout many of the rooms. There's a lot of history that carries through this home, but a rare bit of history also shows in this home in the spindles going to the upstairs. It's been said that they are the same spindles that are in the white house. The lot is beautifully decorated with many annuals and perenials everywhere. There's always something blooming throughout the year. Don't be fooled that there's not enough yard, it's there, just beautifully covered with beautiful flowers, etc. A new buyer can make changes if need be. There is also a newly fenced yard & dog run in the back along with 2 lg sheds for storage. Extra-large living rm has a set of French-doors to the first balcony of 3 in the home. You will find a beautiful decorative fireplace in the living room. On the 2nd floor you will find 3 bedrooms, separate shower room, full bathroom, & small sewing room or walk in closet (options galore), and a small kitchen that once was part of the apartment they had there at one time. All bedrooms have new energy efficient windows. The walk in closet off the master has a door to roof-deck (2nd balcony)over the four-season/family room. Master bedroom has French doors opening onto a West balcony (3rd balcony) with seasonal river views. Functioning shutters are on 1st & 2nd floors. Off the kitchen area on the 2nd floor is also a door to stairs going outside to the back of the home. Thus offering the option to possilby make this a 2 unit down the road, with city approval, of course. Full attic that offers storage, or livable options. In the garage, that was once a barn, has a finished loft (17x14) upstairs that offers several options also. Just use your imagination! This home is spacious, historical, and spacious.
