Property description
This gorgeous 1914 Arts & Crafts brick historic home in the Elgin National Watch Historic District is absolutely stunning! No detail has been over looked when this home was carefully restored! Solid brick, 3 bedroom, 1 1/2 bath home with a the largest lot on the block is a rare find! Beautiful stained glass throughout the entire home, 9' ceilings throughout, original quarter-sawn oak trim, single 3 panel pocket door to the dining room, wood burning fireplace, and an enclosed back balcony off the upstairs bath is perfect for a private escape! The exterior of the home is gorgeous brick, with an impressive front porch & wide eaves. The kitchen was updated with plenty of cabinet and counter space, with a Silverstone sink, and stainless steel appliances.. Basement has separate zoned heating for a finished family room, large laundry room and lots of storage areas. Outside, the carriage house is now a two-car garage, with 220 electric power. The fenced yard in back is plenty of space for dogs and kids to run and play. House was also featured on the 1998 Elgin Historic House Tour!
