Overview
Step back in time without giving up modern comfort in this beautifully preserved and thoughtfully updated 5-bedroom, 2-bath home in the heart of Heyworth. Originally built in 1903 and later moved 13 miles from LeRoy by horses and telephone poles, this remarkable two-story treasure is a living piece of local history, lovingly maintained for over a century. From the moment you step inside, you'll feel the character and craftsmanship that define this home: 10-foot ceilings, original hardwood floors and trim, intricate radiators, transom windows, a built-in hutch, and grand wood pocket doors. A charming working laundry chute, two staircases, and even a few original light fixtures bring warmth and nostalgia throughout. The updated kitchen blends history and function with stainless steel appliances, a large island, newer cabinetry, and a walk-in pantry. French doors lead to a huge 14' x 20' covered back porch. Upstairs, the walk-through primary closet and clawfoot tub add vintage elegance, while the main-floor bath offers a touch of luxury with heated floors. Set on nearly half an acre in a quiet, friendly neighborhood, the yard is a dream, complete with apple and peach trees, mature landscaping, and even a treehouse built in 2024. Enjoy both a covered front porch for morning coffee and a rear porch for evening gatherings. The extra-deep garage provides plenty of storage and workspace. Recent updates bring peace of mind: 2020-2024: Kitchen and pantry remodels, new flooring, bathroom updates, newer appliances, fence and gates, washer, dryer and garbage disposal. 2023: New street, sidewalks, and sewer lines on Karr Street Nest thermostat with Wi-Fi controls for modern efficiency Most windows and boiler believed to have been replaced within the past decade Located just 12 miles from Bloomington, Heyworth offers small-town charm with easy access to city amenities.
