A tremendous find in Urbana's vibrant Historic District, this full-brick Craftsman Four-Square home has 5 generous bedrooms and 4 full baths across 3 finished levels, plus a partially finished basement. Situated on the edge of the University of Illinois Campus and equally close to Crystal Lake Park, and downtown Urbana's restaurants and nightlife, the location is unmatched. A large inviting front porch welcomes guests and provides the perfect spot for relaxing on warm summer evenings. Inside, enjoy the preserved historical character throughout including original wood doors, built-ins, beveled ornate glass feature windows in the living room and staircase. Be surprised walk-in closets and a large cedar storage chest for seasonal use. You will love entertaining in the kitchen featuring custom cherry cabinetry, a stone feature wall, granite counter top, new tile flooring (2022) and a practical built-in desk workspace and large pantry. The porte-cochere (rebuilt in 2025) leads to a two-car garage, adding both charm and convenience. Additional updates throughout the home include remodeled full baths on the first floor (2017) and second floor (2012), added insulation (2010), HVAC (2012/2015), new sewer with exterior cleanout (2025), new skylights (2024), new roof on both house and garage (2024). The backyard is an entertainer's dream, offering an expansive custom cedar deck and hot tub overlooking a fenced backyard with an established perennial garden, raised beds and firepit. Be sure to look to the end of the photos for images of the gardens throughout the year! This home has been loved by all who have lived and enjoyed their time here, and it shows in every detail of the home! This is a home that says WOW!
