About this home

They simply don’t build them like this anymore. Built in 1924, this remarkable 6-bedroom, 5-bath home offers approximately 2,720 square feet of living space filled with the craftsmanship and character that make historic homes so special. Situated on a .26-acre lot in Perryville, the home pairs nearly a century of charm with impressive space and modern updates. Step inside and you’ll immediately notice the details that have stood the test of time. Original hardwood floors, trim, doors, staircase and handrails remain throughout the home, creating warmth and character from room to room. The inviting front sunroom offers a bright, welcoming space, while a fireplace creates a beautiful focal point in the living room. With six bedrooms and five bathrooms, the layout offers an incredible amount of flexibility. Three bedrooms feature their own en suite bathrooms, providing plenty of options for how the spaces can be used. The primary suite feels like a retreat of its own, complete with a fireplace and private bath featuring a soaking tub and separate shower. Elsewhere in the home, a classic clawfoot tub adds another touch of vintage charm. The character may be historic, but important updates haven’t been overlooked. A brand-new HVAC system provides modern comfort, while the attached 2-car garage offers convenience and additional storage. From the original woodwork and hardwood floors to the fireplaces, sunroom and unique architectural details, there is something to appreciate around every corner. Add in six bedrooms, five baths, and an attached garage, and you have a property that is truly difficult to duplicate. 828 W. St. Joseph Street isn’t a cookie-cutter home, and that’s exactly what makes it special. If you’ve been waiting for a home with history, personality, space and craftsmanship, this is one you’ll want to experience in person.
