About this home
Single Family · Built 1928 · Historic
Built in 1928 for Edward Eisner by architect George Ramey, also credited with such buildings as the Champaign City Building, Robeson Department Store and was the local supervising architect of the Virginia Theatre, this home has a rich history. Eisner occupied the home for a few years before relocating. Don Moyer Junior and his wife Patricia, known for his father's Boys and Girls Club namesake, lived here from 1960 until 1988. This beautiful two-story Tudor features a brick and stucco exterior, along with gorgeous woodwork throughout. The home includes four very large bedrooms on the second level and a living room, dining room, and family room on the main level. Additionally, there's a screened-in porch overlooking the backyard. Practical features include a second-floor laundry room and an additional washer and dryer in the basement. The roof was replaced in 2016, and the boiler was rebuilt in 2018. Located near shopping, parks, and everything downtown Champaign has to offer, this home has recently seen a significant price reduction and is ready for a new owner. Become part of the history, today!
