The Little Brick House

Participated in the

Over 1500 people came on this tour!

WOW!

The Theme - The Houses On Broadway

Which featured 11 homes on the historic Cedar Crest Subdivision

Normal's first comprehensive subdivision built

between 1914 and 1930

A quote I found in the Pantagraph

The home “was absolutely darling,” said Capodice, after touring a home on Hillcrest Street.

The Little Brick House

A little brick house on a brick tree-lined street built in 1929 with 3 bedrooms and 1 bath. We bought this house November 2008. Our first intentions was to remodel and add on before we moved in. But after a year of ups and downs and many different addition plans. We have decided to do it in stages. First on our list, remodeling the entire house. We finished the renovations and moved in May 2010. Second phase THE ADDITION was done November 2012. Now here we are living life at The Little Brick House.
