Steeped in history and graced with modern elegance, this magnificent Queen Anne Victorian offers over 3,100 square feet of refined living space in prime Downers Grove location! Built in 1892 by Marshall Field as part of the original E.H. Prince settlement of Downers Grove Historic district, this charmer features a red brick cobblestone street, only a few blocks like this in all of Chicagoland! This architectural gem sits proudly on an oversized 75x141 professionally landscaped lot. Rich with character, hardwood floors flow throughout most of the home, leading to thoughtfully designed spaces, including a living room with a decorative fireplace, a sophisticated dining room, and a library with the home's 2nd beautiful decorative fireplace. The recently remodeled and modernized kitchen features quartz countertops, custom tile backsplash, spacious eat-in area, and stainless steel appliances, while the inviting family room showcases the historic wood-burning fireplace with red brick surround, wood beams and recessed lighting! Upstairs, you'll find the spacious carpeted primary bedroom with a wood-burning fireplace also boasting a carpeted room off the bedroom that could easily be used for a large walk-in closet, nursery, den, or office space! The recently remodeled primary bathroom (2023) adds modern luxury and has dual vanity sink and walk-in shower with custom tile surround.

A new paver driveway leads to a new 2.5-car detached garage, complemented by a paver patio perfect for outdoor entertaining! Adding to its distinguished legacy, the home was once owned by the engine designer of the Pioneer Zephyr, whose groundbreaking work is now showcased in Chicago's Museum of Science & Industry.
