Property details

About 1003 Charles St

Perched high above the Rock River, this classic stone manor, built in the French Eclectic style, is anything but cookie cutter. With its rich character, timeless craftsmanship, and storybook setting next to the iconic Octagon House Museum, the ''Felix Zimmerman House'' stands as a reminder of when homes were built to last. The bright bonus sunroom, graceful stonework, and generous living spaces speak to a bygone era of care and detail, and while it needs a little work to shine at its fullest again, the opportunity to restore and reimagine this one-of-a-kind home is as rare as the home itself. Set in the Richards Hill Historic District, this is your chance to bring new life to a true local treasure.
