Description

A one-of-a-kind Gothic Revival cottage in the heart of Plainfield that has been carefully maintained and loved over the years. The original structure, built in the 1850s, was expanded in 2007 and 2013 with an additional 2,333 sq. ft., bringing the total living space to 4,899 sq. ft. As you enter, you are greeted by the original curved staircase, a hallmark of the home’s character. The original structure includes two bedrooms on the main floor, three upstairs, and a formal dining room. Beyond the dining room, the kitchen-renovated in the early 2000s-features granite counters and backsplash, white cabinetry with pull-out shelves, and tile flooring. Adjacent to the kitchen, the sunroom offers flexibility as an informal dining area or a relaxing sitting space, while the oversized pantry provides exceptional storage. The expansive living room showcases a wet bar, bamboo flooring, crown molding with rope lighting, recessed lighting, ceiling fans, ample closet storage, and a built-in media cabinet. All bathrooms have been updated with tile flooring and tiled walls. Outdoor living is enhanced by beautiful flower beds and a large stamped concrete patio. Over the years, structural improvements were made to preserve the home, including reinforced floor joists and footers, plus a 12-foot beam installed in the dining room ceiling to support the upstairs bathrooms. Additional updates include newer windows, fresh paint, improved insulation, three HVAC systems, and a water softener. This home offers a unique blend of historic charm, thoughtful updates, and expansive living space-truly a must-see.
