Timeless character and remarkable craftsmanship define this historic Beloit residence. Built in 1915 for inventor and industrialist A.P. Warner, the home offers more than an acre of beautifully established grounds, striking brick construction, a steeply pitched roofline, arched entryways, rich hardwood floors, solid wood doors, original built-ins, and spacious rooms filled with natural light. Multiple living and entertaining spaces, five bedrooms, a finished lower level, and thoughtfully updated areas provide modern comfort while preserving the home’s architectural integrity. Warner, known for his work with the automobile speedometer, electric trailer brakes, and early aviation, left an enduring mark on Beloit. Today, 1229 Chapin Street offers a rare opportunity to own a home that is as livable as it is historically significant.
