Property Description
This charming home is packed with character and available for the first time in 40 years!! Professionally landscaped by Brown Woods, lush plantings provide year round interest and a plant-pollinator support system. Beautiful stone-terraced gardens grace either side of steps lead up to this 1928 Bungalow. The 1200 SF one story home includes 2 bedrooms, 1 full bath, beautiful hardwoods (LR and bedrooms), original built-ins, 1 car attached garage and a partial unfinished basement. A 1997 architectural renovation updated the existing clean lines while keeping many original features intact; the addition of the fireplace surround, a wall of built-in shelving in the walk-up family room and to-the-studs kitchen remodel. Stairs to the family room are also located off the kitchen. The fully applianced galley kitchen is thoughtfully designed for efficient use, a peninsula provides useful counter space and opens to the dining room for interaction and ease of conversation. The dining room's southern windows provide excellent light and lovely backyard views while dining or lounging on the window seat. Extra storage is found in original built-ins and inside the entire length of the window seat. The bathroom was updated 2014 retaining the original hexagon tile floor and the addition of space saving wall cabinets; the large walk-in shower was a more recent addition. Both bedrooms are of similar size with era appropriate walk-in closets which include built-in dressers. The boiler was installed 2017 providing hot water radiator heat to keep the home toasty during our colder months. The home is kept comfortably cool in the summer months with a family room window AC. The water heater was new 2022. Roof 2005. An unfinished basement is the laundry location with extra space for flexible use and plenty of storage area. In July 2025, the outgoing cast iron sewer system was replaced; a portion of the cast iron for the kitchen sink and laundry drain also replaced. A sewer scope from the house to the city main showed no issues and in great shape. The home also has an irrigation system. An inspection by Healthy Homes is available on request. An excellent home with an Old Champaign neighborhood vibe, convenient location for community enjoyment, public transportation and UIUC. Come visit, you'll be glad you did!
