About this home
Attention investors, homeowners willing to put in sweat equity, and old house enthusiasts! Built in 1836, this unique two-story farmhouse offers historic character and a flexible floor plan. The main level features two large bedrooms, 2 full baths, a spacious kitchen, large family room with original French doors and main-floor laundry. The upper level includes 3 bedrooms, plus an added apartment-style living area featuring a kitchen, family room, bedroom, full bathroom, and separate exterior staircase. Although it's zoned single family the Village of Plainfield has indicated that the property's existing two-unit use is considered legal nonconforming. Buyers should independently verify permitted uses and applicable requirements. Additional features include original woodwork around select doors and windows, a detached workshop, a detached one-car garage with extra space, and a historic outhouse that is not functional. The home is functional but needs quite a bit of TLC and updating. Recent improvements include a brand-new roof 10/26 and a new shower in the apartment. An opportunity for homeowners or investors seeking a distinctive historic property with flexible living space. Property sold as-is. Historic James Mather residence circa 1836-1837 identified in the village of Plainfield historic survey and recommended for landmark designation. Property is not currently in historic district or has landmark status. However, with the historic significance of this house, it may qualify for Illinois tax rehabilitation credits (income producing properties) or the illinois tax assessment freeze program (owner occupied properties).
