Urbana, IL 61801 408 W Michigan Avenue

Located in Urbana's State Streets, just a block from Carle Park and minutes to campus and downtown Urbana, this 1920s home offers 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and over 2,500 square feet of living space filled with charm. The front living room welcomes you with original woodwork, hardwood floors that run throughout the home, and a wood-burning fireplace with built-ins on either side. The layout flows naturally into the dining room with access to a screened porch, creating an easy connection between indoor and outdoor living. The kitchen stands out as a focal point, opening into an additional living area wrapped in windows that bring in natural light and overlook the backyard framed by mature landscaping for added privacy. Updates include countertops in 2022, a gas range, a new dishwasher in 2025, and a one-of-a-kind island crafted from salvaged marble from the historic Cattle Bank. Upstairs, the primary bedroom offers a large closet, a built-in dresser, and an ensuite bath with a vanity top made from the same marble, tying the detail back to the kitchen. The room also overlooks the backyard, giving a peaceful, tucked-away feel. Three additional bedrooms share a full hall bath, while two have access to a versatile three-season room with built-in bench storage, ideal for a playroom, office, or creative space. The unfinished basement provides additional storage, laundry, and ground-level access to the backyard, making it especially functional for storing outdoor equipment or seasonal items. Outside, a deck overlooks the fenced back yard with raised garden beds, offering another space to relax or entertain. In the front yard, a border with prairie flowers provides color all Summer long and into the Fall. Additional updates include refinished hardwood flooring on the main level in 2020 and electrical improvements completed in 2016. Full of character and natural light, this home blends an established, peaceful setting and a location you'll appreciate every day.
