1903 Mission Revival house Urbana Illinois - 1 - front view

House overview

Designed and built by celebrated Urbana architect Joseph W. Royer as his personal residence in 1905, this stucco, broad-eaved Mission Revival gem blends Arts & Crafts detailing with a gracious wrap-around porch and abundant original character.

Set within the Joseph W. Royer Historic District at Oregon & Busey - now recognized on the National Register of Historic Places (listed April 18, 2022) - the property sits just off Lincoln Ave near campus and today functions as a student rooming house.

With its generous rooms, period woodwork, and intact historic fabric, it's poised to become either an extraordinary private residence or a compelling income producer (buyer to verify allowable uses). Exterior work is subject to local historic-district guidelines, helping preserve the streetscape's enduring charm.

A rare chance to steward a signature Urbana home with direct ties to the architect behind Urbana High School, the Urbana Free Library, and the Champaign County Courthouse.
