Property Description
One of Batavia's most architecturally significant limestone homes, this extraordinary residence was originally built in 1911 by Dr. Bernard Cigrand, recognized as the Father of Flag Day. Set on nearly an acre along prestigious South Batavia Avenue, this remarkable property has been masterfully reimagined, preserving its iconic limestone exterior while being completely reconstructed from the inside out. The result is an incredibly rare opportunity to own a home that offers the timeless character and craftsmanship of a historic landmark with the quality, efficiency, and luxury of modern construction. Taken down to its original limestone shell and rebuilt with uncompromising attention to detail, every space has been thoughtfully designed to honor the home's rich architectural heritage while delivering the comfort and functionality today's lifestyle demands. Offering more than 3,200 square feet of beautifully finished living space, the home features five spacious bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and a flowing floor plan that perfectly balances elegant entertaining with everyday living. Rich hardwood floors, exposed wood beams, custom millwork, designer lighting, and carefully curated finishes create warm, inviting spaces filled with timeless character. The stunning chef's kitchen is truly the centerpiece of the home, showcasing custom cabinetry, premium appliances, a handcrafted butcher block island, farmhouse sink, quartz countertops, a professional Wolf range, and exceptional workspace designed for both everyday living and unforgettable gatherings. The luxurious primary suite provides a peaceful retreat, while beautifully appointed bathrooms feature spa-inspired finishes and heated floors. Behind the walls, extensive improvements-including updated mechanicals, dual-zone HVAC, closed-cell spray foam insulation, whole-house water filtration, reverse osmosis, water softener, premium Kohler fixtures, and countless custom upgrades-offer the confidence and convenience of essentially new construction without sacrificing the home's historic soul. The full basement with exterior access provides outstanding storage and endless possibilities for future living space, while the oversized 41/2-car garage offers exceptional flexibility for vehicles, hobbies, or additional storage. Outside, mature trees, expansive green space, and beautifully landscaped grounds create a private setting that feels like an estate while remaining just minutes from downtown Batavia, the Fox River, Riverwalk, parks, boutique shopping, restaurants, and highly regarded schools. Properties of this caliber are seldom offered. Combining architectural significance, modern craftsmanship, luxury finishes, and an irreplaceable location, this is far more than a home-it is a legacy property. Beautifully preserved, meticulously rebuilt, and thoughtfully designed for generations to come, this is truly one of Batavia's most exceptional residences.
