About this home
Built in 1920, this south Villa Park gem is the kind of home people slow down to look at. At over 3,700 square feet, it's big enough to spread out, but every room still feels warm and inviting. Stepping through the front door onto the original mosaic entryway is just the beginning of the many details that are lovingly preserved in this home. Original hardwood floors throughout. High ceilings, wide moldings, and period details around every corner including wood built-ins, original hardware and stained glass. Four bedrooms each with a walk-in closet give everyone their own space. Two full baths including one with a true claw-foot tub and separate shower, plus two half baths. Large family room with built-in bookcases spills out to a multi-tiered deck that overlooks a private park-like backyard with mature trees, open lawn and firepit. The kitchen features a newer dishwasher and fridge, granite counters, and hardwood floors. Tucked away in this home is a hidden speakeasy-style bar - a nod to the era when this house was new and Prohibition was in full swing. Mood lighting and stained glass highlight this intimate space. There is a finished recreation room in the basement for even more space to spread out, as well as a work room with bench. There's even a real root cellar! Three-car garage. Really too many amazing details to list. This home must be seen to appreciate all the personality held within....
