A Broad Porch Beneath Steep Gables in Peoria
A broad covered porch, slender white columns, and a steep front gable give 1407 W. Barker Avenue in Peoria, Illinois, a distinctive face, with an asking price of $100,000.
The exterior photographs show decorative porch trim, projecting window bays, mature trees, and a driveway leading toward the detached garage.
Built in 1900, the house is currently advertised with six bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and 2,204 square feet, along with a dining area and an additional bonus room.
The listing also documents a full unfinished basement, replacement windows, natural-gas forced-air heating, and central air conditioning.
Older public-record pages report fewer bedrooms and bathrooms, so buyers should confirm the current layout and room classifications.
For someone seeking an older home with several rooms and an inviting porch, the appeal is clear, while the condition of the structure and systems requires inspection rather than conclusions from photographs.
