Property Description

Welcome to one of West Frankfort's most beloved homes - The Historic Christmas House - located right on iconic Candy Cane Lane! I can still recall all of the lights and sounds echoing back from drives through this neighborhood during the holiday season as a child. Just a short distance from the high school and city park, this charming and spacious property offers nearly 2,000 square feet of living space on a beautifully maintained, fully fenced 1+ acre lot. Inside, you'll find 3 comfortable bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and an enormous living room with its own central air and heat - perfect for hosting gatherings year-round. The large sunroom/family room floods with natural light and provides the ideal space for relaxing or entertaining. Enjoy an attached 2-car garage, two impressive outbuildings: a 24'x60' pole barn - ideal for storage, hobbies, or a home workshop and a 30'x48' detached garage that could be finished into a mother-in-law suite, home gym, game room, etc. If you get too hot working in the yard, jump in and cool off in the in-ground swimming pool, surrounded by open space and privacy. Whether you're drawn in by the holiday magic or the everyday comforts, this one-of-a-kind property offers a rare mix of history, charm, and functionality in a prime location. Schedule your private showing today to make this great house your new home!
