Charles Castle House is an historic home in Oak Park, IL.

Charles Castle House

With historic homes, our first priority is to acknowledge the work that has gone before us — this 1924 beauty had incredible original detail including exterior limestone, mahogany interior trims, hand painted gold leaf ceiling mural, four unique fireplaces and large flowing rooms. But even a grand old lady gets tired after 90 years. The project involved rebuilding exterior details with original brick, a complete re-wire, re-plumb and re-roof, creating custom millwork where old had been damaged or lost, and bringing in a local artist to repair water damage to the ceiling mural. The result–a 5 bedroom house with five new baths, an enlarged and modern (but historically sensitive) kitchen and a new lease on life for the next 90 years.
