About this home

This iconic home was designed by Robert Paul Schweikher, the celebrated modernist architect known for his warm integration of wood, brick, and glass, this pre-midcentury residence at 501 E High Point Road stands among Peoria’s most architecturally significant homes. Completed in 1949 for Ernest and Lucinda Burhans, the home embodies Schweikher’s hallmark style with horizontal rooflines that blend with the landscape, walls of glass that frame the wooded setting, and finely crafted natural materials that bring texture and light to every space. Featured in The American House Today, the design remains a masterclass in organic modernism and quiet sophistication. Offering over 5,100 square feet of living space with 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and a 3-car garage, this remarkable residence rests on 3.5 private acres with stunning views of the Illinois River. Rarely available and lovingly preserved, this property represents a true piece of Peoria’s architectural heritage, a home where art, architecture, and nature live in harmony.

About High

Point

High Point, located between Grandview Drive and Knoxville Avenue, is a residential and park-adjacent Peoria neighborhood with blufftop views and winding, tree-lined streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Grandview Drive at the lookout pull-offs, where stone walls, sweeping river vistas, and a steady rhythm of walkers and cyclists set the tone. Housing leans toward mid-century ranches and well-kept traditional homes tucked into rolling terrain. Nearby green space shapes daily routines, with trailheads and picnic lawns framing the edges. A short drive connects to Peoria’s cultural anchors, including the Peoria Riverfront Museum and the Peoria Civic Center. Dining landmarks such as Jim’s Steak House add a classic local note to nights out.
