A Gilded Age Masterpiece

Oh my goodness, Victorian lovers, stop what you are doing! This 1890 Queen Anne estate is the absolute definition of “grand.” Sitting prominently on Racine’s iconic, brick-lined College Avenue, this house looks like it belongs on a vintage postcard. It has all the fancy stuff we crave—towering rooflines, huge window bays, and that classic “I’m the ruler of the neighborhood” curb appeal. If you’ve ever wanted to live like a 19th-century tycoon, your castle has officially arrived.

Woodwork That Will Make You Swoon

Step inside the front doors and prepare to have your breath taken away. The absolute best part of this home is the intricately carved woodwork. We are talking about massive pocket doors, soaring ceilings, and millwork so detailed it would cost a fortune to try and copy today. The formal parlors are flooded with natural light from giant architectural windows, making it the perfect place to host a fancy party or just drink your morning coffee while feeling very important.

Five Beds and Five Baths? Yes, Really!

Now, here is the real “unicorn” feature of this historic gem: it has five big bedrooms and FIVE full bathrooms. Finding an 1890s home where you don’t have to wait in line for the shower is like finding a pot of gold. Because of this amazing layout, it’s currently a super successful luxury Airbnb. You could keep making money from day one, or move in and give everyone in the family their own private suite. No more bathroom bickering—now that’s a fairytale ending!

Beach Walks and Brick Streets

The location is just the cherry on top. You are living on a picturesque brick street just blocks away from the beaches and marinas of Lake Michigan. You can walk to downtown boutiques, theaters, and restaurants, or hop on the highway for a quick trip to Milwaukee or Chicago. It’s a perfectly preserved slice of history with all the modern upgrades you need to stay cozy. Don’t miss your chance to own a Racine landmark!
