About This Home
Step back in time with this 1891 Victorian home full of historic charm, solid craftsmanship, and restoration potential. Ideally located directly across from Allison Cunningham Park-the city's oldest park, established in 1858-you'll enjoy beautiful open views, mature trees, and no front neighbors - a rare blend of privacy and convenience right in the heart of town. This spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bath residence offers a large, sunlit living room, formal dining room, a big kitchen with breakfast nook, and a laundry room conveniently off the kitchen. Sitting on an approx. 7,000 sq ft lot (50' 140'), there's ample space to add a deck, detached garage, or garden retreat. The interior and exterior have already been cleaned out, saving time and expense-ready for your vision, whether you plan to restore its historic character or modernize it with a fresh update. Located less than a mile from Western Ave, one of Mattoon's most desirable residential areas, and just minutes from parks, grocery stores, local restaurants, and medical services. With low housing inventory and steady buyer demand in Mattoon, now is the perfect time to invest. Begin renovations this winter and have it ready by spring-perfectly timed for the next busy selling season. A standout opportunity with character, space, and strong long-term potential-sold as-is.
