Property details
About 600 W Lincolnway Rd
Sitting on 1.37 acres bought from John H Gray, this 10,280 sq ft home was built by a prolific local banker, Edward A Smith, for his wife Ellen M. (Sprauge) Smith and named Hillendale. Edward was instrumental to the growth and development of Morrison by helping to: bring Libby, McNeill and Libbey companies, organize the first electric light company in Morrison, and bring Lincoln Highway to Morrison. During his lifetime E.A Smith remodeled the home 5 times with multiple additions and the building of the tea house and the ponds around 1918 and updating the exterior style from a Queen Anne to the current Tudor style with stucco and half timbering. The home was sold after his death in 1957 to George and Hazel Jones who converted the home into seven apartments, reconfiguring the main stairway to directly access the second and third floors. The home was then bought by Harry and Orvilla Watt in 1962 who continued to rent the home as apartments. In 1989 Mike & Barb Winandy restored much of the home to be the Hillandale Bed & Breakfast opening in 1991. After the Bed & Breakfast closed its doors, Ludens and Potter Law Office bought the property in 2009 and now it is ready for a new era with a new owner to bring new life into this historic home. The tea house, now referred to as the guest house, has a single bedroom, with two bathrooms and served as the attorney's primary residence with some additions and upgrades starting in 2015. Behind the guest house is the 4-stall garage with a cinderblock vault and an attached greenhouse. The screened in gazebo is 25 feet in diameter with a stove and seating all around the perimeter. The main house roof was done in 2022. 400 Amp electrical with updated wiring on the first floor to circuit breakers. Second and third floor are currently fuses. The basement has copious amounts of storage and a 1/2 bath. Boilers are approx. 25 YO. The laundry area has multiple sink basins, windows, and a doorway to outside. This property and all included appliances are being sold "as-is" Barbara Kophamer is the Trustee for the 600 W Lincolnway Land Trust, not a beneficial of the estate and she has no ownership interest in the property.
