1020 North Second Street is an iconic Tudor Revival on spacious grounds and is one of four early 20th century mansions perched above the Rock River just south of the Nicholas Conservatory. A venerated symbol representing the returns on Rockfordâ??s significant contributions to Americaâ??s pre-war in...dustrial economy, this 4 bedroom and 2.5 bath brick 3928sqft (above grade) home was constructed during the darkest hours of the Great Depression for H.A. Jackson, a prominent pharmacist. Among the industrialists and business leaders who called this property â??homeâ?? were the presidents of Burson Knit, Roper Corp, Rockford College and Rogers Clock. Aside from its provenance, 1020 North Second Street can be characterized by its storybook charm and well-preserved classic Tudor architecture featuring slate roofing with copper ridge and flashing, double entry foyer with 2-story barreled ceiling, Tudor-style arched openings, living room with the large masonry fireplace being its most prominent and grand feature, formal dining room with colonial raised-panel wainscoting, and back stairs as auxiliary access to the second floor. All bedrooms are located on the second floor, including the primary suite featuring double walk-in closets, front and rear cantilevered bayed windows and access to the period-correct bathroom that offers a walk-in shower and cast-iron bathtub. A secondary master suite/ensuite features a freshly remodeled full bathroom. This property also features a semi-updated kitchen with raised panel cabinets, backsplash, under-cabinet lighting and Whirlpool/Kenmore Elite appliances. The sunroom/solarium with slate flooring was added sometime in the 1960s, along with a 3-season glassed-in porch off the rear foyer. The attached garage is heated. The lower level is partially finished featuring a rec room area, decommissioned/closed-off fireplace and a bar area, a large utility room and cold storage concrete-enclosed shelter room. There have been a number of costly repairs and updates recently made that afford this homeâ??s new owner the ability to immediately occupy, including but not limited to extensive roofing improvements, updated electrical service, conversion from boiler heat to zoned HVAC per floor, plumbing updates, bath and tile remodeling, window refinishing, hardwood flooring refinishing and restoration of the back staircase. All existing appliances are included with the offering of this property. 1020 North Second Street is a spectacular value and represents a one-of-a-kind opportunity to own such a rich piece of Rockfordâ??s historical past.
