Step into a rare piece of Brookfield history. This Victorian-style farmhouse - built by Samuel Eberly Gross just three years after he founded the village when it was known as Grossdale - blends timeless architecture with thoughtful, modern comfort. Owned and lovingly cared for by the same family for over 30 years, every improvement has honored the home's original character. From the intricate front porch spindles to the gracious family room addition at the back, the integrity of the design has never been compromised. Custom trim was milled to perfectly match the original woodwork so the addition feels seamless - as though it has always belonged. A beautiful fireplace and a selection of custom-designed stained-glass windows add warmth, light, and artistry throughout. Upstairs you'll find four bedrooms, including an expansive primary suite that offers the space today's buyers crave while maintaining the home's period charm. The basement provides the best of both worlds - half finished living space and half storage. Outside, enjoy summers around the backyard pool, which is consistently opened and closed each year. Ideally located within walking distance to the Congress Park commuter train, dual-language elementary school, downtown Brookfield, Imperial Oak Brewery, and vibrant downtown La Grange. A great chance to live within the award winning Lyons Township High School District 204. This distinguished home is also a proud recipient of the Brookfield Historical Society's Preservation Award - a testament to the care and craftsmanship poured into every detail. Historic. Thoughtful. Truly one-of-a-kind. This is a once-in-a-lifetime home - and it won't last.
