LISTING DETAILS
Designed by famed architect George Garnsey, who also designed the
Ellwood House, Ogle County Courthouse, the David Syme house in Sycamore,
the details in this home are incredible! Built in 1885, this home is
loaded with character! The home sits on a double lot and 66x131 lot could be
sold if desired. Multiple stained glass windows and pocket doors,
original hardware, 3 fireplaces and front and back stairs are just some
of the features. A kitchen any chef would love with high end appliances,
heated stone floors and a huge island with Carerra Gold marble counter,
great for making pastries. Huge walk-up attic could be finished for more
space. Currently has 2 semi-finished rooms and with additional 43x20
space could make wonderful master suite. Five large bedrooms on second
floor. The gardens outside hide several patio areas and feature many
unique trees and perennials appropriate for a home from Victorian era.
Still needs some work, but the owner has made many improvements. Awesome home
for a B&B.
