Listing information updated 11/17/2025 at 1:23pm

One of West Chicago's most graceful and historic Queen Anne homes set on a DOUBLE LOT, welcome to 348 Arbor Avenue! The plaque near the front door notes this as "The Henry Bradley House" and a designated local landmark. Enter from the covered front porch into a gracefulness that is hard to find. ALL of the main floor woodwork and on the winding staircase has been hand scraped and refinished back to its original glory. Hardwood floors throughout most rooms, 10' ceilings on the main level, extra-wide base trim, ceiling detail and rich crown moldings grace most rooms. The living room offers a fireplace, bay window and generous seating areas. The dining room has plenty of room to spread out. The versatile 1st floor den/library (or 4th BR) has a walk-in closet and built-in bookcases. The kitchen was updated not too many years ago and features white cabinetry, beautiful bay window with window seat, Corian counters, special lighting, Dacor and Kitchen Aid Appliances. There is access to the back porch, and out to the yard and the 2-car garage. There is also access in the kitchen to a back staircase and a staircase leading down to the basement. An updated 1/2 bath completes the main level. The 2nd floor offers 3 spacious bedrooms, a full updated bath, a sleeping porch and a nursery/craft room. There is also a finished walk-up attic with endless possibilities. The basement offers great storage, the laundry area, an outside entry and an UPDATED AMP ELECTRIC SERVICE PANEL, and a NEWER Hi-Efficiency heating/cooling system. The double-wide lot (102' wide & 132' deep) has many gardens, plenty of play space and privacy. The 2-car garage is accessible off the alley in the rear. Easy walk to downtown West Chicago and even to the commuter train station. Plenty of shopping nearby as well and close to the schools. This home has been lovingly cared for AND it shows. Originally built by the West Chicago Door and Sash Company, it has been owned (and improved-note NEW ROOF on home & garage in '24) by this family for over 64 years! This is your chance to own a piece of history!
