A truly special Queen Anne bungalow in Geneva's Historic District, just blocks from the heart of downtown, the Metra station, and the incredible restaurants, boutiques, cafes, and entertainment along Third Street. A recipient of a Geneva Historic Preservation Award, this one-of-a-kind residence beautifully preserves its original character while offering the space and modern amenities. The professionally redesigned and expanded interior features five bedrooms, four-and-a-half bathrooms, hardwood floors, extensive millwork, numerous built-ins, and thoughtfully selected finishes throughout. A welcoming covered front porch opens to a spacious living room and light-filled sunroom. The updated kitchen features white cabinetry, stainless-steel appliances, a butler's pantry, and direct access to the expansive deck. A private first-floor bedroom wing offers excellent flexibility as a primary suite, in-law arrangement, home office, or guest retreat. The park-like grounds are equally impressive, with mature trees, creek views, a screened porch, and multiple spaces for outdoor entertaining. Historic character, exceptional outdoor living, and a walkable downtown Geneva lifestyle-this is a home unlike anything else on the market.
