Welcome to Joliet's coveted Cathedral Area. This amazing Victorian has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated while preserving its historical 1908 character. A covered front porch with a swing adorns the front of this 3-story (plus basement) and 2.5 car detached garage. Home features 4 bedrooms, 2 1/2 bath home on a tree lined street. Inside, beautiful quartersawn hardwood oak floors are featured throughout the home along with 5-panel doors. A leaded glass window and room-dividing columns greets you in the foyer, fine detailed woodwork on the staircase and that repeats throughout the home. In the dining room, French doors and the kitchen swing door highlight the room. The big bay window floods the room with natural sunlight. The kitchen includes all your desired modern amenities with granite countertops, an island breakfast bar, new stove/oven, beautiful wood cabinets and big pantry. ***Furnace, water heater, roof, leaf gutter filter all new in 2022, A/C - 2011.

The updated half bath is thoughtfully tucked away off the rear entrance with new storm door which flows perfectly to the back covered porch and white picket fenced backyard with tree swing. The second story features all the bedrooms, including a surprisingly spacious primary bedroom with rare walk-in closet and sitting area. Full bath on this level is big, updated, and features a built-in linen closet. A walk up to the third story reveals a bonus room large enough for a multitude of uses, with custom beds, large closet, and original exposed brick. The finished, dry basement of this home is surprisingly bright, cozy, and inviting and features an updated full bathroom, big laundry room, new water softener, and ample storage room. All area rugs on the main level and the basement stay. The 2 1/2 car garage has all the room you could need for two cars plus storage, no alley behind the home. Great neighborhood close to schools, and many other amenities.
