Property Description

Set on an exceptionally large 2.17-acre bluff-side estate directly adjoining Bradley Park, this 1932 Uplands residence stands among the neighborhood's most distinctive properties. Designed during the height of Peoria's streetcar-era expansion, the home showcases classic period craftsmanship—from its solid masonry construction and rich millwork to its gracious room proportions and timeless symmetry. With over 3,600 square feet, four bedrooms, and three and a half baths, the home's thoughtful layout balances formal entertaining spaces with inviting everyday comfort. The large finished basement provides generous additional living area and includes a fascinating Prohibition-era storage room, rumored to have held the original owner's private stock of liquors—a hidden reminder of the home's early twentieth-century story. Occupying one of the largest home sites in the Uplands, the property offers a remarkable sense of privacy and open green space rarely found within city limits. Yet it remains within easy reach of downtown Peoria, Bradley University, and the city's cultural and dining destinations. Few homes capture the enduring character, setting, and spirit that have defined the Uplands since its founding in 1903—a neighborhood created by some of Peoria's most civic-minded residents to celebrate architecture, community, and park-centered living. Thoughtful updates throughout and a newer air conditioner vented throughout the second story. Schedule your showing today.
