415 Dupage St, Elgin, IL 60120

Rarely does an authentic American Foursquare become available in Elgin's coveted Gifford Park neighborhood. Set within the Elgin Historic District, this distinguished 1905 residence offers 4 bedrooms and [3] full bathrooms, pairing grand turn-of-the-century stature with the craftsmanship and everyday livability that make homes of this era so enduringly desirable. Its commanding facade is anchored by an impressive exposed stone foundation and distinctive polished pressed brickwork laid with remarkably thin butter joints, details that speak to the skill and artistry of its original construction. Inside, original hardwood floors, pocket doors, two fireplaces, an inviting enclosed front porch, a two-story sunroom with French doors, a rare dual staircase, and generously proportioned rooms continue the story. A walk-up attic with new skylights offers exceptional expansion potential, while thoughtful infrastructure improvements, including updated plumbing from the house to the street, city sewer replacement, circuit breakers, a newer roof and boiler, provide added confidence. Set above the street on an elevated lot with a private fenced yard and detached two-car garage, the home is ideally positioned between James T. Gifford Park and Channing Park, minutes from downtown Elgin, Metra, neighborhood schools, restaurants, and the Fox River corridor. Rich in history, generous in scale, and filled with irreplaceable architectural detail, 415 DuPage offers a rare opportunity to become the next steward of an authentic piece of Elgin's architectural legacy.
