About West End Historic

District

West End Historic District, located between Millikin University and downtown Decatur, is a historic and residential Decatur neighborhood with tree-lined streets and early-20th-century architecture. The district reads as a catalog of Craftsman bungalows, Tudor Revival details, and broad front porches set behind mature canopy trees. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Millikin University campus edge, where brick academic buildings and shaded sidewalks set a collegiate cadence. Kirkland Fine Arts Center anchors the cultural calendar with performances and exhibitions. Nearby, the Decatur Area Arts Council adds gallery energy and community programming. Pocket parks and walkable blocks keep daily routines grounded in the streetscape.

This striking English Tudor Revival home has a rich history and backs up to the enchanting Montgomery Place neighborhood!
