About this property

One-of-a-Kind Historic Property in the Illinois Valley - Endless Opportunity Awaits! Rich in history and full of charm, this extraordinary property in the heart of the Illinois Valley is unlike anything else on the market. Built in the late 1800s as a boys' home and thoughtfully remodeled into a funeral home in the 1920s, the property has since been used as both a single-family residence and a multi-family property. Its historic details, spacious layout, and modern updates create a rare opportunity for homeowners, investors, or anyone looking to bring new life to a truly unique piece of local history. The main level welcomes you with a stunning formal entrance, soaring 9-foot ceilings, and beautifully preserved original woodwork. Natural wood floors run throughout the home, adding warmth and character. Multiple living spaces include a large great room, a family room with a cozy gas fireplace, and a formal dining room ideal for entertaining. The main level also features a laundry room, abundant storage, and original pocket doors that highlight the craftsmanship of the era. The second level offers flexibility with 3-4 bedrooms, a full kitchen complete with a pantry, and a full bath. Large windows fill the home with natural light, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere throughout. The third level features a full walk-up attic with incredible storage potential-perfect for future expansion, hobby space, or simply extra room for seasonal items. A partially finished basement adds even more living space, complete with a bar and game room area, making it a fantastic spot for entertaining or relaxation. Adding to its uniqueness, the property includes a working elevator that services all floors, making accessibility a true benefit rarely found in homes of this era. The exterior is just as functional as the interior, featuring a 2.5-car garage with openers, a convenient pull-through carport, and a nicely sized yard for outdoor enjoyment. This property is equipped with multiple heating zones, two furnaces, one AC unit, and dual electrical systems (200 amp and 100 amp fuse boxes), providing efficiency and peace of mind. With multiple entrances throughout, the layout is ideal for a variety of uses-whether as a spacious single-family home, a multi-family conversion, or even a distinctive historic Airbnb or bed-and-breakfast. There is far too much to list-this property truly must be seen to be appreciated. If you're seeking a home with character, space, and unlimited potential in a location close to shopping, dining, and Interstates 80 and 39, this is it!
