About This Home

As of April 2024

Fall for this fine American Foursquare on historic Fell Avenue! Stately all-brick two-story nestled between ISU & IWU offers grand updates inside & out plus a 2-Car Oversized Detached Garage and mature, private lot for added enjoyment. The oldest documented all-brick foursquare build of its kind in the Midwest, has been lived in and loved for over a century! Current owners have invested wisely in modern upgrades while still retaining the charm of days gone by. You'll want to linger longer on the newly reconstructed open front porch overlooking the lush front lawn. Pass through the main level family room with soaring 9 foot ceilings, hardwood floors and craftsmen style open staircase into the spacious formal dining room with triple crown molding and tons of natural light. Fully remodeled kitchen featuring custom maple cabinetry (with smart undermount lighting and outlets!), abundant storage and gorgeous quartz counters with tile backsplash maximizes style & space. Bonus bump-out mudroom has perfect potential for main floor laundry or half bath improvement. Up the beautifully finished hardwood staircase into the main landing and you'll find a spacious bath and three perfectly sized bedrooms with terrific closet space, built-ins and (you guessed it!) more hardwood floors! In the lower level, you'll find a partially finished space plus unfinished utility room. Detached oversized 528 SqFt 2-Car Garage with electrical is just perfect for toys and tinkering. Major improvements include Roof, HVAC, Electrical, Plumbing, Driveway, Garage, Appliances, Sewer/Water Line, Water Heater, plus newly installed Sump Pump with tile system to ensure the health and safety of this home for years to come... There's nothing left to do but relax on the front porch with your favorite book and a cup of tea! Please ask the agent for dates and details on all improvements, there is so much to share about this special property!
