The exterior has been refreshed with new siding, giving the home crisp, clean curb appeal, while updated and new windows bring in abundant natural light throughout. A screened porch offers a welcoming spot to relax, and the classic gabled roofline with multiple dormers adds distinctive character both inside and out. Inside, fresh paint and new carpet give the home a clean, updated feel while preserving original touches like built-in corner cabinets with glass-front doors and a charming window seat nook - details that speak to the home's early-1900s craftsmanship. The eat-in kitchen features white cabinetry with brass hardware, laminate countertops, a classic farmhouse-style apron sink, a gas range, and refrigerator, all set against durable vinyl plank flooring. Just off the kitchen, a bright mudroom/entry area offers built-in coat hooks and drawer storage - a practical touch for everyday living. Upstairs you'll find two bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with vaulted ceilings and a ceiling fan, plus a full bathroom with a tiled tub/shower surround. A staircase leads down to a full basement, offering additional storage or utility space, and a detached garage rounds out the property. This home blends early-20th-century character with meaningful updates - a solid opportunity for buyers drawn to homes with history and personality. Conveniently located to shopping, schools, doctors, and recreation. ## Location - **Address:** 856 W AMERICAN Street, Freeport, IL 61032 - **Coordinates:** 42.290315, -89.634092 - **Google Maps:** https://www.google.com/maps?q=42.290315,-89.634092 ## Listing Agent - **Name:** TY WINGERT - **Brokerage:** Signature Real Estate Brokerage, LLC - **Broker Phone:** (815) 315-1111 - **Listing URL:** [View original listing](https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/856-W-American-St_Freeport_IL_61032_M98728-34475?f=listhub&s=RAARIL&m=202605686&c=propsimple) ## Photos ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 1](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f3790275705r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 2](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f1282897236r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 3](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f1547631525r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 4](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f3103288907r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 5](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f411941168r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 6](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f2285162782r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 7](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f272564549r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 8](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f2441554454r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 9](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f3868196784r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 10](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f3575993777r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 11](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f2528432571r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 12](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f2294885626r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 13](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f2294885626r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 14](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f3981025589r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 15](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f623452758r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 16](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f4026736074r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 17](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f791371517r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 18](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f2711449055r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 19](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f373766427r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 20](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f3228616454r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 21](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f761224438r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 22](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f3698102037r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 23](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f3907793670r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 24](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f3790275705r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 25](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f1950624884r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 26](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f3148487462r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 27](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f835130059r.jpg) ![856 W AMERICAN Street - Photo 28](http://lh.rdcpix.com/99720d54b9d105e16a966efcd19cd084l-f600078194r.jpg) --- **MLS#:** 202605686 | **Updated:** 2026-10-27 **Source:** listhub *Copyright © 2026 NorthWest Illinois Alliance of REALTORS.
