Large historic DIY special! It is rare to find a large, brick, 2.5 story home in St Charles with this sort of potential! There is work to be done, but the upside would be absolutely fantastic. When you drive up, the double lot (100x145) is what you notice first. Then you see the full-brick majesty of this home with a curved wrap-around porch, brick bay windows, & the 3rd story window overlooking the river valley. The rooms all show historic millwork, wood flooring throughout, & all the historic charm you expect in a turn of the century home. The 2nd story has 3 large bedrooms, with a bonus room & a hidden room towards the rear. There is an unfinished 3rd level, a full stone/rock basement with cellar and internal stair entrance, & off-alley parking perfect for a garage. Let's see what you can do with this winter-project beauty! This “as-is” home needs renovation including a new roof, and we are looking for a purchaser with a loan that can easily overcome such repair needs.
