About This Home

Built in 1860 with quality and integrity meant to stand the test of time, this Sycamore home blends historic character with everyday comfort. Original crown molding, the living room ceiling, and the basement reflect the home's history, while thoughtful updates make it easy to settle in. The home offers three bedrooms plus a flexible room just off the primary bedroom. It could serve as a home office, sitting room, nursery, or a spacious closet and dressing area. Additional features include a built-in mantel designed to conceal cords for a mounted TV, blinds throughout, updated appliances, and a new shower installed in 2026. The furnace was replaced in 2018 and the A/C in 2020. Keyless entry on all exterior doors, app-controlled garage door openers, and Govee Pro outdoor lighting add convenience. Outside, the large, fully fenced backyard offers several places to gather or unwind. The expansive deck features a built-in eight-person hot tub and seating arranged to enjoy the yard from either direction. Beneath the deck, a paved seating area with a table and fire pit provides another spot to relax. There's also a sandbox, a powered reading nook that could be repurposed for entertainment, a storage shed, and a spacious 2.5-car garage with room for vehicles, storage, or hobbies. Just minutes from downtown Sycamore and a block from local parade routes, this home puts community events close by while offering a private backyard retreat. With its original character, useful updates, and inviting outdoor spaces, it's a place to make your own.
