About This Home
Step into timeless charm at 215 Taylor Road, a 1931 bungalow nestled on a spacious .33-acre corner lot in the heart of Elgin. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath home has been lovingly preserved by an owner who cherishes vintage character and chose not to modernize its unique details. Original wood-framed lead glass windows, a front door with lead glass inlay, and original longleaf pine floors in the living room and front bedroom showcase the home’s historic appeal. The kitchen features retro Formica countertops, vintage cabinetry, and a full wall of pantry storage. A quaint phone nook in the hallway and skeleton-key interior doors add even more charm. The two bedrooms are connected by a door that was sheetrocked over for privacy but can easily be reopened - an easy weekend project if you’d like to restore the original layout. The front bedroom also connects to the living area for flexible access. The living room fireplace was sealed prior to the current owner’s purchase, and an electric standalone fireplace now sits in front of it and will convey with the home. The bathroom offers generous storage, while the large bonus room at the back of the home includes fresh carpet, an upgraded ceiling fan, and is ready for your finishing touches. Enjoy your morning coffee on the spacious covered front porch or unwind on the back patio overlooking a privacy-fenced yard. Exterior features include a two-car carport, an RV-size carport, and a detached garage currently used as a workshop/storage space. This lovingly maintained in-town bungalow offers the perfect blend of character, comfort, and convenience. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of Elgin’s history—schedule your showing today and come see all the charm and potential this classic home has to offer!
