A DISTINGUISHED PEKIN ESTATE, THIS HISTORIC 4-BEDROOM, 2.5-BATH RESIDENCE RESTS GRACEFULLY ON NEARLY AN ACRE—offering a rare blend of architectural pedigree and refined modern comfort.

From the moment you enter, the home reveals its grandeur through rich original woodwork, elegant pocket and French doors, intricate built-ins, and a sweeping open staircase that anchors the grand parlor and main level with timeless sophistication. The formal living room flows seamlessly into the formal dining room, creating an ideal setting for gatherings and entertaining. The updated kitchen features ample cabinetry, modern finishes, and a true butler’s pantry for added storage and prep space. A light-filled sunroom overlooks the expansive backyard, while the impressive third-floor ballroom—once a space for elegant events—now offers an exceptional opportunity for a luxurious recreation suite, studio, or private guest retreat. Thoughtful stewardship by the current owners has preserved the home’s historic integrity while enhancing its livability, resulting in a residence that lives as beautifully as it looks. Sun-filled spaces, inviting architectural details, and the serenity of nearly an acre create a setting rarely offered and impossible to replicate. While the original garage has been removed, new footings and foundation walls are already in place for a future garage. Garage building plans and an extensive list of the home’s numerous updates are provided in the associated documents.
