Gorgeous wood floors flow seamlessly from room to room, complemented by period trim and moldings that preserve the home's timeless appeal.

A generously sized first-floor bedroom offers flexibility for guests or main-level living. Upstairs, you'll find three additional bedrooms all with generous walk-in closets, including one currently used as a second living room, and a spacious full bath. Outside, enjoy a landscaped and fenced yard ideal for relaxing or entertaining, plus a two-car garage for added convenience. Extensive 2016 updates provide peace of mind, including: Two new furnaces with smart controls and allergy air system, new water heater, radon mitigation system, basement waterproofing system, new roof, complete kitchen remodel. This is a rare opportunity to own a lovingly updated historic home in one of Champaign's most charming neighborhoods.
