About this home
Timeless 1920s character meets thoughtful modern updates in one of Geneva's most sought-after neighborhoods. Built in 1923, this charming Dutch Colonial sits on an exceptional lot with a beautifully private back courtyard, a classic arched front portico, a finished attached two-car garage, and a custom-built shed. Step through the insulated solid oak, period reclaimed leaded glass front door with matching arched side windows into a gracious foyer with marble flooring. Gleaming hardwood floors and original wood trim carry throughout the home, complemented by architectural wallpapers and authentic 1920s brass pendant light fixtures. The dining room still features its original refinished brass and crystal sconces. The home offers three fireplaces: a gas fireplace in the family room, a wood-burning fireplace in the living room, and a third gas fireplace in the primary bedroom. The kitchen is a true showpiece, with a solid black walnut island, white marble countertops, and two sinks, including an Italian fireclay main sink. A walk-in pantry with a pocket door provides abundant storage. Main-floor laundry adds everyday convenience, and the main-floor full bath features marble floors and a beautifully preserved 1950s bathtub. Upstairs, the primary suite is a private retreat with a custom limestone fireplace and a spectacular balcony overlooking the back courtyard. The primary bath offers ceramic floors, a marble countertop, and a custom cast iron tub. Every bedroom includes a custom-built walk-in closet. A huge, functional attic, accessible from both the second-floor hallway and the primary closet, provides exceptional storage. The finished basement adds an additional bedroom with closet, a half bath, and two crawl spaces for even more storage. Step outside to the composite deck off the den and enjoy the peaceful, private courtyard. Peace of mind comes standard with a 2023 roof, all windows replaced in 2005 with Marvin UV-protected glass, all copper plumbing, electrical rewired beginning in 2000, a new 2025 dual-zone heating and A/C system, and a tankless water heater. A rare opportunity to own a beautifully preserved piece of Geneva history, just minutes from downtown shops, dining, and the Fox River....
