Classic 1925 Craftsman in the heart of Normal Heights. Two blocks to Adams Avenue’s restaurants, live music, and street fairs. Single story with original character fully intact. A covered front porch with tapered columns opens to refinished oak floors, coved ceilings, picture rail, and tall original panel doors throughout. The living room centers on a brick fireplace with working gas insert, flanked by built-in bookcases and cabinetry, and flows into a separate formal dining room.
