Nestled in a leafy enclave of a quiet, friendly neighborhood just steps from Aurora University and Freeman Elementary School, this house is a fine example of American architectural heritage. The comfortable and unaffected style sometimes called Cape Cod but also known as Traditional was hugely popular coast to coast from the late 1930s on. Built in 1937, this house is nicely proportioned and well-constructed, and today retains hints of the Jazz Age with original Streamline Moderne light fixtures, St. Charles kitchen cabinets and built-in niches. Overall the house is roomy and classic, with large mullioned windows that let the light stream in all day long, hardwood floors, plaster walls, deep closets and a brick fireplace in the living room. Huge, airy walk-up attic is ready for your finishing touches. There is a vintage stone barbecue as the focal point of the back yard. A spacious brick patio provides outdoor living amidst trellised vines and an openwork canopy. There are harmonious additions like the bright breakfast room with built-in china cabinet and a mud room/back porch. Two bedrooms (one could be a great study/office) and a completely-redone bathroom on the main floor. In the partially-finished basement there is a bedroom, full bath, rec room and large laundry room. Updated landscaping. New furnace and air conditioner installed March 2021. Brand-new asphalt driveway installed in June 2021. One car detached garage.
