About this home

Step into a living piece of Champaign history at 1003 W Church Street, home to the iconic Frederick Squires House, proudly listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Originally designed and built in 1927 by architect Frederick Squires, this remarkable residence was created by thoughtfully combining two earlier homes and incorporating reclaimed materials, a forward thinking approach that gives the house its rich texture and character. Every detail reflects an era when craftsmanship mattered and homes were built with intention. Inside, you will find 4 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, warm woodwork, inviting living spaces, and architectural elements that tell a story. One of the most special features is the solarium addition, a light filled retreat that blends beautifully with the original design and offers a peaceful place to read, gather, or simply enjoy the changing seasons. This is more than a home. It is a rare opportunity to become the next steward of a property with deep roots in Champaign's architectural history. For the buyer who values old houses, meaningful design, and the stories held within historic walls, this one is truly special. The roof and gutters will be completely replaced in April 2026.

MF2

Multifamily Medium Density District

It is the primary purpose of the MF2 District to provide for multifamily development at a higher density than the MF1 District, but not as high as the dense urban core around the University of Illinois. The size of buildings is controlled by the floor area ratio and open space ratio. The MF2 District is a good transition between commercial areas, or major travel corridors and single-family areas. This district is appropriate in urban areas with compact development patterns. There should be an adequate system of local streets and residential collectors to serve MF2 District areas. MF2 District areas may be located along major arterials. Locations near service by mass transit should be encouraged.
