This isn't a house. It's a time machine. If you're tired of the same cookie-cutter designs, keep reading. 102 S Monroe Street is a fully brick Victorian home built in 1895—the kind of architectural masterpiece that doesn't get built anymore. Every detail tells a story: original turret, stained-glass window, three sets of pocket doors, and a claw-foot tub that has drawn baths for over a century. CHARACTER-FILLED LIVING SPACE:
Five generous bedrooms and two full bathrooms spread across 3,012 square feet of authentic Victorian charm. The primary bedroom features a wood-burning fireplace with an ornate mantle. A secondary staircase off the kitchen provides convenient access to the 2nd level—perfect for busy family mornings or when entertaining guests. High ceilings and original architectural flow make every room feel larger than the square footage suggests. The walkable attic space and unfinished basement create virtually unlimited storage and expansion potential. But here's what sets this property apart: an original two-story brick carriage house separated from the main house by a beautiful courtyard. This isn't a garage—it's a period-correct outbuilding with character, storage, unique entertaining space, and potential ADU/rental income opportunities for the right buyer. Plus, a 2-car garage that actually fits 2 cars (imagine that). PRIME LOCATION:
Situated on a desirable corner lot in the heart of Freeburg, just two blocks from Freeburg High School. Walk to local businesses, community events, and schools. Or put your host cap on for a classic Friday night tailgate come Fall. The fully fenced backyard provides complete privacy for entertaining or family gatherings on the courtyard and covered patio. CONDITION & MAINTENANCE:
This well-maintained Victorian has been cared for throughout its 130-year history. Original architectural elements preserved, modern systems reliable. Roof 10 years old. Hvac 2023. Sellers are also including a 1-year home warranty. The full brick exterior and solid construction prove this home was built to last another century. INVESTMENT & LIFESTYLE OPPORTUNITY:
Perfect for buyers seeking authentic historic character with small-town convenience. Whether you're looking for a family home with character, multi-generational living space, or a property with rental income potential via the carriage house, this Victorian delivers options that modern construction simply cannot replicate. For the right buyer, this is THE house. The one you don't have to imagine—you just walk through it and know. Open House: Sunday, April 12, 2-5 PM.
