Description
Step into a home where history doesn’t just whisper… it lives in the walls. Believed to be one of the first large residences built in McDonough County, this striking Federal-style home once sat on an expansive 80-acre property stretching from Piper Street to Grant Street. A rare blend of history and livability, the home welcomes you with a full-length porch featuring elegant Italianate balustrades. Inside, warm hardwood floors, original woodwork, and large wood-trimmed windows fill the main level with natural light. The primary living room flows into a formal dining space accented by a classic chandelier and bold feature wall. The kitchen balances charm and function with dark wood cabinetry, granite countertops, a central island, and a garden window overlooking the outdoors, with an adjacent dining area for everyday ease. Upstairs, a second living space creates a cozy retreat with plush carpeting, multiple windows, and a marble-surround fireplace. This three-bedroom, two-bath home features a spacious primary bedroom with hardwood floors and a second bedroom filled with natural light. The bathrooms add character, including one with a vintage clawfoot tub, white tile wainscoting, and a garden-view window, and another with a unique elongated layout and integrated storage. Original craftsmanship remains throughout including, wood flooring, beams, and detailed finishes, all thoughtfully preserved alongside modern updates.
