Property Description

Major Renovation Opportunity in Naperville's Historic District. Vintage Elegance Meets Endless Potential-Bring Your Vision! Tucked away on one of Downtown Naperville's quietest streets, this 1893-vintage home offers a major renovation opportunity for those with vision and dedication to blend history and character with modern potential. Cherished by the same family for over sixty years, this elegant residence delights with graceful curb appeal, welcoming porches, and fine interior millwork. The rare oversized 75x150 lot is a highlight. Step inside to discover 9-foot ceilings on the main level, original vintage 6-panel doors, and ornate hardware that speak to the home's heritage. The main floor offers a formal living room, a spacious dining room, a private office, a bedroom (used as a study), compact bathroom, and a convenient laundry closet off the kitchen. In the 1980s, a vaulted family room with a wood-burning fireplace was added to the back of the house. Upstairs, three bedrooms are tucked into the gable ends, with architecturally interesting sloped ceilings, and share two full bathrooms, making for a total of four bedrooms and three bathrooms throughout the home. Modern upgrades have been thoughtfully implemented over the years, including late 1960s and mid-1980s improvements, two separate HVAC systems (one replaced in 2021), a roof estimated to have been replaced in 2010, and a water heater installed in 2017. The detached two-car garage, accompanied by 2-3 additional off-alley parking spaces, provides ample off-street parking. Unfinished basement with original limestone-block foundation. Located in Naperville's Historic District, this property offers walkability and easy access to the amenities of downtown living. Please be aware that a Certificate of Appropriateness may be required for some renovations. The property is being sold AS IS.
