The details!! That fretwork! Circa 1896 in Illinois. $99,500

December 4, 2023

Don’t judge a book by its cover! This home was built in 1896. It is located in Du Quoin, Illinois. The house features a covered front porch with a gazebo, hardwood floors, inlaid hardwood floors, original fretwork, stained glass and a grand staircase. I kind of like the wallpaper in this one. Four bedrooms, three bathrooms and 2,562 square feet. $99,500
