Do you remember seeing this beauty on the 2019 Historic Elgin House Tour? It has become a favorite of tourgoers. You must experience this gem in person to appreciate the quality of workmanship that went into this house! This large Victorian, 1883-painted lady has a wonderful tower, true to its style. The interior has been completely rehabbed with new top-of-the-line everything! And the exterior original details have been restored as well, worthy of a Chicagoland Painted Ladies Award in 2014. The house now functions as a large one-bedroom, but could easily be modified to be a three-bedroom home, as it once was. The back "walk-in closet" can easily be a bedroom. The front room, with a privacy screen or new doorway, can also be a bedroom if needed. It has a unique open floor plan that retains much of the historic charm. Original details abound inside and out, with beveled and stained glass windows, hardwood oak floors (some new to match original), and trim. Fantastic rooms, especially the kitchen. There is a welcoming front porch and a screened porch at the rear, where you just might decide is your favorite place to be. Four zones of hydronic heat in floors, with a backup furnace and Spacepac AC on the second floor. Plumbing is set for two additional bathrooms if desired. Big long yard, with a three-car garage, accessed by the alley. Attic storage in and 220 power in garage, with two car chargers. This is an awesome house. See the list of special features in the Additional Information pull-down. Features such as on-demand hot or cold filtered water at the sink; quartz countertops; a heated towel bar in the bathroom; and tinted windows are just a few of the special items in this house.
