Description
This beautiful Tanner Historic District home was the original servant's house for the adjacent Smith mansion and was constructed with attention to detail and quality craftsmanship. The first floor is flooded with light from no less than fifteen windows and the original hardwood floors are intact and are burnished to a warm patina. The first floor ceilings are over nine feet high and lend an elegant air. The dining room features a newly restored twelve foot bay window that exactly duplicates the original. A Craftsman era staircase and double height window are uniquely styled for this home. There is an abundance of storage seldom seen in vintage properties. The master bedroom measures 15x15 and offers four closets alone. There is also a first floor private room which could be an office, den, library or small fourth bedroom or could be used to expand the kitchen and add a half bath. Enjoy coffee in the morning or greeting neighbors in the evening on your own front porch. Updates include window restoration 2008, Pella overhead garage door 2014, new water heater 2016, new furnace 2017, new garage service door 2018, new washer/dryer 2020, new dining room window 2021, exterior paint 2021. Electric has been updated to 100 amp breakers and plumbing is copper. While the home has central air conditioning, it also features a whole house fan for energy efficient cooling on all but the most hot and humid days. There is a full basement with lots of windows and an oversized 23x19 two and a half car garage. The Fox River trail system, RiverEdge Park, the Paramount Theatre, The Venue, and now Metra are all within walking/biking distance. I-88 tollway interchange is just north on RT 31. What a great opportunity to start life in your own one of a kind home in a vibrant walk to train location.
