The Cathedral Area of Joliet is known for its timeless era of distinct architecture dating back to the turn of the century. This Dutch Colonial home stands proudly among the very best of them and has been meticulously maintained and preserved to showcase the original mill work, flooring, french doors & trim, in graceful balance with blending updates, as time marches forward.
