About This Home
Step into a piece of Aurora’s rich history with this stunning century home, beautifully blending timeless charm and thoughtful modern updates. Believed to have once been the residence of Henry D. Burroughs, this treasured property offers original wide plank wood flooring dating back to the mid-1800s, historic banisters, dual staircases and exquisite architectural details throughout. Located in the heart of Aurora, just a short walk to schools, the library, restaurants, and the city’s beloved Fourth of July parade route, this home is truly one-of-a-kind. The updated kitchen is bright and welcoming with quartz countertops, a walk-in pantry, and a cozy window seat. Enjoy gatherings in the formal dining room with access to an enclosed porch or relax in the warm and inviting family room with fireplace and historic character. A main-level home office with built-ins flows into a large sunroom featuring a wood-burning fireplace and views of the private back patio—complete with an outdoor fireplace. A flexible main-floor space can serve as a library, study, fifth bedroom, or laundry room with its own half bath. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite offers a wood-burning fireplace, walk-in closet, and a beautifully updated en-suite bath. Three additional bedrooms, each full of character, and two full bathrooms complete the upper level. Additional highlights include zoned HVAC, a two-car attached garage, and a fenced backyard. Seller is offering home warranty to buyer! This rare gem in the award-winning Aurora School District is ready to welcome its next chapter. A true historic haven in the heart of it all!
