Would you like to own a part of history? Welcome to the prestigious Gothic Wheeler/Woolner house! This beautiful home offers many opportunities! Inside the grand entrance you'll find a sprawling main floor, including a formal library with built-ins, a 2 story glass atrium & an updated kitchen. The grand staircase, w/ an ornate carved banister, will take you to the 2nd floor which has 4 bedrooms, including a spacious primary bedroom w/ a beautiful bath. 2 skylights above the grand staircase (currently covered). Basement has a large rec/famly room w/ the original marble flooring! More small rooms in the basement that are semi-finished and a room plumbed for a bathroom. The atrium stonework has recently been all restored w/ stone & steel beams by Otto Baum Construction. 2 new furnaces in 2021 & radon system. Roof needs repair/replaced & there is damage to some of the ceilings. Walk-up attic that includes 2 rooms the seller recently discovered while exploring! Gorgeous Iron fence around yard. The county has the house listed as residential, but we're confirming that it was chanaged to Neighborhood Commercial. Seller has done a lot of research w/ the city and county in reference to the Tif District & the Qualified Census Tract. It's possible the buyer could receive assistance if inquired. Garage is currently unusable & the City of Peoria has approved to having it removed at no cost to the seller. Would make a great parking lot. The home is being sold as-is. A rare opportunity!
