From the Zillow listing:

 

Lovingly restored, meticulously maintained and improved upon, this Victorian home is truly one of a kind. Designed and built by architect J. G. Garrett, this impressive property was passed down within the same family until the current owners’ purchase. The attention to detail is apparent throughout. All woodwork and wood floors, doors, hardware, stained glass windows, and shutters are original. 3 of the 4 fireplaces are reportedly from the 1893 Chicago World’s Fair, shipped by train. The attic has been finished and is accessible by elevator, adding approx 855 sq ft to the home. All new plumbing and electrical throughout. Every effort was made to ensure the integrity of the original home was maintained.
