Property Description

Built in 1918 by architect William H. Boylan as his personal family residence, this remarkable center hall colonial has been a beloved landmark on the south side of Highland Park for over a century. A gracious foyer welcomes you into generously proportioned rooms with original hardwood floors throughout. The living room is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, and the sun bathed formal dining room gives way to an eat-in kitchen with a charming butler's pantry. In the 1980s, a seamless addition enhanced the home, introducing a sun-filled study on the first floor and an expansive primary bedroom on the second floor. In total, the home offers 5 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and a finished basement. Modern upgrades such as two-zoned central air conditioning and a Generac whole house generator have been installed for comfort and convenience. Set on beautifully landscaped grounds, the property also features a detached two-car garage and palatial back yard with a new well-appointed patio ideal for relaxation or entertaining. This is a rare opportunity to own a home where history, architecture, and modern comfort come together in perfect harmony.
