This home is a real charmer with it's dignified setting on North Main street, in historic Princeton, Illinois ! The curb appeal is obvious as you travel past this gem, whether driving or walking. The wrap around porch and "turret" like roof line all make the home stand out. Inside you will find beautiful hardwood floors, tall ceilings, crown moldings, pocket doors, a built in pass thru hutch from the kitchen to the dining room. The front parlor has a historic fireplace that although it is not functional, still adds a great feel to the homes interior. Recent improvements include many thermal windows, a new roof and gutters, furnace and a/c upgrade in 2017. The home has a functional full basement with a outside entrance. A floored attic also adds storage space or possibilities for future living space. This home has had a rich history of ownership by the "who's who" of Bureau County. The Zearing and Noble families have all enjoyed living here. Most recently, the home was used for a local insurance office where they lovingly maintained the interior, giving the home the respect it deserved. Please note the kitchen cabinetry have been removed to allow for a office space. With some simple renovations, this home will be ready to bring enjoyment to your family. Come take a look at the possibilities.
