About this House

Step into a timeless piece of Naperville history. Built in 1912 and nestled in the Historic District, this one-of-a-kind home captures the charm of a bygone era while offering the comfort and style of modern living. Thoughtfully renovated top-to-bottom in 2004; taken down to the studs; this beautiful period home blends historic character with high-end finishes, custom millwork, and gleaming Brazilian cherry hardwood floors throughout. Recent updates continue to elevate the home, including full interior repaint (2026), inground sprinkler system (2024), stunning wrap-around Trex porch (2023) - perfect for morning coffee or relaxing evenings - finished basement (2021), updated powder room (2021), roof, gutters and downspouts (2019), exterior paint (2019), and a furnace designed for vintage homes (2018). The kitchen features maple cabinetry, granite countertops, farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances, and a center island ideal for gathering. Upstairs offers two spacious bedrooms and a luxurious primary bath retreat. Unbeatable location just three blocks to the train, across from Ellsworth Elementary School, within highly acclaimed Naperville Community Unit School District 203, and a short stroll to downtown Naperville. Historic charm, modern comfort, and a story waiting for its next chapter.
