A Home With a Story — and Room for the Next Chapter! Perched on a bluff overlooking Peoria and the Illinois River, this extraordinary 1894 Flemish Revival home offers nearly 6,000 sq. ft. of living space filled with historic charm and craftsmanship. Built over two years, the home showcases hand-carved woodwork featuring seven hardwoods, original gas-and-electric fixtures, pocket doors, curved plaster ceilings, five fireplaces, historic talking pipes, and a remarkable parlor mirror with its own foundation. The renovated kitchen features a classic English AGA cooker, while an outdoor brick oven is perfect for entertaining. Enjoy beautiful river and city views from three levels, along with inviting porches, patios, and gardens. Extensive renovations include a slate and copper roof, updated mechanical systems, kitchen, bathrooms, basement, attic, portico, patio, landscaping, and restored driveway and stone retaining walls. Situated on nearly an acre, this one-of-a-kind property offers privacy while remaining within walking distance of Peoria's hospitals, riverfront, churches, and schools. Rich in history yet designed for modern living, this timeless treasure is ready for its next chapter!
