Property Description
This 1925 charmer is just blocks from the historic and lively downtown area of Batavia where you'll find shops, restaurants, breweries & pubs. Street lights and sidewalks line the neighborhood where many of the homes range in age from late 1800's to new. This house is oozing with potential. As you first enter the home you'll discover the extra deep (7.5' x 23') enclosed porch with a classic bench swing and lined with windows - a perfect escape for your morning coffee or evening tea. 9' high ceilings and original millwork consistent with 1920's residential architecture are present throughout the main floor. The decades old carpet was just recently removed (August 2024) to expose the original hardwood floors which sprawl across the entire house with the exception of the kitchen. Sellers are offering a $2,500 credit for you to use towards refinishing the original beauty and luster of the oak floors. They're going to be gorgeous! Quotes for refinishing the floors throughout the entire house came in as low as $4,700. The stairway is waiting for carpet to be removed and hardwood refinished. What a beauty that's going to be! Upstairs you'll find 3 bedrooms, each with it's own walk-in closet, and 1 full renovated bathroom with shower and tub. At the top of the stairs, centering the bedrooms and bathroom you'll find built in shelving with plenty of additional storage. The kitchen includes a butler pantry lined with cabinets. The kitchen has a rear entry porch. You may consider the concept of combining the butler pantry and rear porch to nearly double the size of the kitchen. Roof and Siding new in 2015. According to the sellers, the history of this home was that it was built as a wedding gift for a niece by her two uncles. Home is sold AS-IS. 3 Window AC Units will stay. Sellers are willing to take the refrigerator with them if buyer doesn't not want it. (10yrs+ old). Come and experience what the photos can't show you including the unfinished cinder-block basement. and the 1-car detached garage. No HOA here! Enjoy the close lifestyle and proximity of being walkable to Batavia's historic downtown, the Fox River and bike/walking path, award winning schools, Batavia Library, quarry, parks, Illinois Prairie Path and so much more. An old school record store is attached to an award winning art gallery "Water Street Art Studios" just blocks away.
