Property Description

Own a piece of Marengo history - for one weekend only! Built in 1834, this remarkable Italianate-style estate is believed to be one of the oldest homes in McHenry County. Set on an extraordinary and rare 2.07-acre lot within city limits, it includes an in-ground pool, detached pool house, and an abundance of original architectural detail rarely found today. With an appraised value of $400,000, this historic treasure is being offered as-is for $329,000 - over $70,000 below appraisal - and will be sold during a one-weekend event only. Inside, you'll find nearly 2,654 square feet of character: tall ceilings, intricate woodwork, a grand staircase, marble fireplace, and rooms that tell stories of another era. The potential here is undeniable - whether you're a restorer, investor, or someone with vision for what this home could once again become. The property needs significant work. Opportunities like this simply don't exist twice. Bring your contractor, your imagination, and your proof of funds - and be ready to move fast. All offers due by Monday at 12:00 PM. Sold strictly as-is. No exceptions. 622 Telegraph Street | Marengo, Illinois Historic charm. Endless potential. One weekend to make it yours.
