About this home
Attention, historic home lovers! Welcome to the iconic Brittingham Mansion, a truly one-of-a-kind historic landmark in Danville, Illinois. William E. and Jane Head Fithian built the Colonial Revival home in about 1905. The architect was Urias E. Garrett, who, in 1901, was the architect for the Soldiers Home. This approximately 7,000-square-foot home and Carriage House showcase the breathtaking Victorian and Edwardian architecture, remarkable craftsmanship, and extraordinary historic details that are impossible to replicate today. The Brittingham Mansion, spanning four incredible levels, offers a fascinating glimpse into
its historic past while providing endless possibilities for modern-day living. The main level welcomes you through an impressive reception foyer with a grand staircase. This floor features a living room, kitchen, pantry area, formal dining room, and a fabulous library with glass-door bookcases. There is a beautiful furnished sunroom and front porch entertaining area. Throughout the home, you will find stunning original woodwork, intricate built-ins, mosaic tile floors, leaded glass, and the remarkable leather-wrapped walls in the formal dining room. The second floor features 3 large bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a laundry room, along with a second kitchen, offering additional flexibility in living arrangement possibilities. Continue to the third floor, which was originally designed and used as a ballroom and is now utilized as a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment,
complete with a third kitchen and an additional washer and dryer in the laundry room. The unique basement continues the home's story with a former Gentlemen's Club room. An incredible space that could easily serve as a family room, entertainment area, or gathering space. You will also find a fascinating, original laundry-drying appliance
artifact, adding yet another piece of history to this extraordinary property. The Brittingham Mansion has most recently been rented to executives from a local company and traveling medical professionals. This extraordinary property presents an
incredible opportunity for someone looking to make this iconic landmark their own private residence or to take advantage of the various rental options. All furniture and appliances are included in the sale. The original dining room chandelier was donated to the Tiffany Museum, leading to the belief that other original fixtures and leaded glass windows throughout the home may also have ties to Tiffany. From the award-winning design and architecture to the original craftsmanship and
historic features found throughout all four levels, there is truly something remarkable around
every corner. Outside, the property continues to impress with its original livery stable converted into a large
garage and storage area. Enjoy the coy pond and historic 2-story Carriage House, all adding to the character and historic significance of this incredible property. The Carriage House contains 4-bedrooms, 2-bathrooms, a full kitchen, dining area, and living room. Historic features are simply too numerous to list. This is a rare opportunity to own one of Danville's most iconic properties—a truly one-of-a-kind home filled with history, character, and timeless craftsmanship, ready for its next chapter!...
