315 E Chestnut St., Bloomington, IL 61701

A very rare opportunity to own a meticulously restored (and updated) historic home on Franklin Square, overlooking the park! This Italianate beauty was restored by an old-house buff with the skills of a master craftsman, and an incredible eye for detail. There are so many updates: plumbing, electrical (no knob-and-tube here), roof, kitchens (yes, there are two), one of the baths (the other has been restored), all crown molding on second floor has been hand-crafted, all windows restored, all door hardware restored, brand new water heater, newer furnace, and the list goes on... While this home is eligible for restoration and preservation grants, due to the historic S4 zoning, there is nothing left to be done here -- it's in fantastic condition... Just move in and enjoy! This gorgeous mansion is the perfect place to entertain, and there are plenty of rooms for out-of-town guests to stay. Don't miss this one. It's priced to sell, so it won't last long!
