The 724 House | Historic Downtown Geneva Welcome to The 724 House, circa 2002 - one of the finest homes in downtown Geneva, where timeless architecture meets thoughtful, comprehensive updates throughout. This beautiful custom home exudes history and grandeur, with a floor plan designed for both elegant entertaining and easy everyday living. Step inside and the period details speak for themselves: transoms, wainscoting, crystal door hardware, rich hardwood floors throughout the first floor and upstairs hallway, and a striking two-sided fireplace. The living room and dining room are grand and generous, flanking a gracious main staircase that was beautifully replaced with wood stairs and remodeled railings in 2023. The large family room and sunroom on the main level overlook a beautifully wooded, private yard, while the kitchen and open family room are bathed in natural light from floor-to-ceiling windows on every level. This home has been meticulously maintained and continuously improved. A brand-new furnace and thermostat were installed in 2026 ($12,000 investment), and a gas fireplace was added in 2024. The master bathroom received a full remodel in 2024, complementing fresh paint and wallpaper throughout nearly every room - the dining room, family room, office, living room, master bedroom, bedroom hallway, master bathroom, laundry area, second-floor bathroom, kids’ bedrooms, and basement - completed between 2024 and 2026. The kitchen cabinets and all interior doors were freshly painted in 2025; exterior shutters were added in 2025; and new carpet was installed in the master bedroom and baby room in 2023. The home also features a new refrigerator/freezer, dishwasher, and dryer; ensuring every system and surface has been thoughtfully cared for. Upstairs, a grand landing opens to four spacious bedrooms and a convenient second-floor laundry area. The primary suite offers a gorgeous treetop view overlooking the private wooded yard - a peaceful retreat just steps from downtown. The finished walkout basement adds an incredible one thousand six hundred sixty-four square feet of additional living space; perfect for multigenerational living or as a private guest suite or extra entertaining room. Outside impeccably designed gardens create a true sense of magic right in the heart of downtown Geneva alongside a magical babbling brook. You are just one block from Geneva’s historic downtown with some of the Fox Valley’s finest dining options as well as chic boutiques; steps from the Metra station for effortless access to all the culture of downtown Chicago. This is more than a home - it is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Geneva’s history fully updated for modern life. Welcome home to The 724 House.
