Built around 1900, this stunning home boasts remarkable craftsmanship and a deep historical connection. From the moment you step inside, you'll be captivated by the original unpainted oak woodwork, built-in bookcases, elegant parlor doors, and exquisite trim that reflect the beauty of a bygone era. In 1923, this residence became home to the Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity at Eureka College, and for three of his four college years, Ronald Reagan lived here. Imagine owning a piece of history where the future president studied and forged lifelong friendships! The spacious walk-up unheated attic, once the sleeping quarters for fraternity brothers, adds to the unique story of this incredible home. This would be an awesome additional family room or master bedroom suite if finished. Over 800 sq. ft. of additional living space. While preserving its timeless character, recent and current owners have made tasteful updates that enhance modern living without compromising the home's original charm. Don't miss the chance to own a part of history! This is more than a home—it's a legacy. Let's not forget the main level laundry, large front sitting porch, backyard patio, oversized 2 car garage, which includes work space. All this and a double lot. Great outdoor space. De-watering system, single layer roof in 2005, all newer exterior doors, new boiler in 2005.
