Step into a piece of Sycamore history with this charming circa-1900 home, where timeless character meets thoughtful updates and an incredible backyard retreat! Situated on a deep lot, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath home is filled with original details that are becoming harder and harder to find, including beautiful hardwood floors, vintage fixtures, two staircases, and architectural charm throughout. The spacious interior offers plenty of room to spread out, featuring a separate dining room, dedicated pantry, and additional finished attic space tucked away off one of the upstairs bedrooms. Both full bathrooms have been updated, while many of the home's original features have been lovingly preserved. Major improvements offer added peace of mind, including a new roof and siding in 2021, updated heating and cooling systems, and several replacement windows. But the real showstopper? The backyard! Designed for entertaining, this private outdoor oasis features an in-ground pool with a newer liner (2022), hot tub, expansive deck, beautiful landscaping, and stamped brick pavers. A heated 2-car garage provides even more functionality and storage. Conveniently located just blocks from downtown Sycamore, local parks, schools, shopping, and dining, this home offers a rare combination of historic charm, modern conveniences, and outdoor living that's hard to come by. A home with this much character and personality is truly something special. Come see for yourself!
