Step into timeless elegance with this gorgeous 5-bedroom Queen Anne Victorian, beautifully blending historic charm with modern convenience. Grand Prize Winner of the 2014 Chicagoland Painted Lady Competition and proudly featured on the 2016 Elgin Historic House Tour, this home is a true architectural gem.

A large basement offers even more usable space. Outside, the paver brick driveway, privacy fence, lush landscaping, and pergola create a private, picture-perfect yard ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Located just a short walk from the Metra station, downtown Elgin, and local schools, this move-in-ready Victorian masterpiece offers rare character and unbeatable location.
