Welcome to 1225 Michigan A premier residence in one of the North Shore's finest neighborhoods...

Located on one of the most coveted streets in Evanston, two short blocks to Lake Michigan, 1225 Michigan Avenue is a wonderful historically significant home.

Originally built for attorney E. E. Osborn and his wife, Ada, it was designed by Evanston architect, John T.W. Jennings in the 1890s and cost approximately $7,000 to build. The Queen Anne-style was borrowed widely from Victorian-era styles and the combination of stone, clapboard, shingles and brick gave the Queen Anne homes a varied texture. With enormous historical significance, this is a home that has stood the test of time and perfectly blends the classic with the modern.
