Property Description

Nestled in Joliet's prestigious Cathedral Area, this 1924 Sears Roebuck Arts & Crafts cataloque all-brick bungalow, "The Ashmore", stands as a testament to an era of exceptional craftsmanship and design. Recognized as patterened after a rare Sears kit home, exemplifying early 20th-century design, this property has been designated a Local Historic Landmark and has been proudly featured twice in the Cathedral Area Preservation Association's annual house walk. With its wide wood frieze boards, handcrafted shingles, and brick detailing, this home offers an extraordinary opportunity for those who appreciate authentic period details, historic integrity, and timeless elegance. Inside, this beautifully preserved and thoughtfully updated spacious bungalow features meticulously handcrafted red oak woodwork, intricate fireplace built-ins with geometric muntin patterns,and rich hardwood floors. The impressive gas-fired cobblestone fireplace is accented by a hammered-copper surround and Motawi cusom-made tiles. Classic red-oak millwork, hallmarks of the Arts & Crafts movement, further enhance the home's architectural significance, while period-style light fixtures, sconces and crown molding add to the timeless charm. The gourmet kitchen has been meticulously renovated to seamlessly blend period-appropriate aesthetics with modern functionality. It features antique lighting, Brazilian soapstone countertops, custom-lit cabinetry, and artisan wood details including period-perfect ceiling beams, making this kitchen a perfect space for both cooking and entertaining. A versatile second-floor suite -- complete with its own full kitchen, living area, bedroom, and tiled bath with large step-in shower-offers endless possibilities as a guest retreat, artist's studio, or related-living space. Outside, the home is framed by an extra-deep backyard featuring mature trees, inlaid brick patio, providing a setting that honors the home's rich heritage. The expansive front porch, with its classic Craftsman-style columns and authentic brackets and exposed roof beams, invites you to relax and take in the timeless beauty of the neighborhood. This is more than just a home-it is a piece of living Joliet history. A rare opportunity for architectural enthusiasts to own a meticulously maintained and historically significant residence in one of Joliet's most cherished neighborhoods.
