Description

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.
