Look At The Woodwork On The Ceiling! Circa 1900 in Illinois. $395,000

I love that old homes tell as a story as you walk in. From the outside, you see this stately house with a large porch and windows everywhere. Then you walk up the steps and you see the deep porch and can imagine what it would be like to lounge on the porch during a summer evening. Inside, there’s the gorgeous hallway with wood paneling and leaded glass that primes you for the foyer. Then you reach the foyer and you’re surrounded by gorgeous woodwork, a beautiful staircase, and rooms that flow naturally. Each step into the house gives you a little taste of what’s to come.
