Price listed is Starting Bid Only. Bidding starts closing 1/14/2026 @ 5 p.M. Step into a property where history, character, and income potential converge in one extraordinary opportunity. Originally built in 1891 as a cornerstone bank in beautiful Aviston, Illinois, this iconic corner-lot building still features its beautifully preserved original vault, a striking reminder of its heritage. Today, it operates as the Eagle Inn, a proven revenue generator with room to scale. The main level hosts six private rental suites, each with its own entrance, dedicated mini split for heating and cooling, and a full private bath. Two of these suites include full kitchens, making them ideal for extended-stay guests. With strong occupancy, the suites currently produce $6, 300 per month in rental income before expenses, and that figure does not account for the additional upside awaiting you. On the second floor, a spacious one-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath apartment offers dedicated heating and cooling. Once the manager’s quarters, it is served by both a freight elevator and a charming dumbwaiter, combining modern convenience with historic flair. Behind the scenes lies the property’s hidden gem; several partitioned warehouse bays, partially heated and cooled, with three drive-in doors. These spaces provide remarkable flexibility, whether envisioned as vehicle storage, workshops, studios, or transformed into a bar, restaurant, or event venue. Leasing the warehouse areas separately offers a substantial, untapped revenue stream. Perfectly positioned on a prominent corner in the heart of Aviston, this property blends an abundance of charm with income production. It is an exceptional investment for owners seeking both character and profit potential, a rare opportunity where history and entrepreneurial vision meet. Property will sell under auction terms and be sold AS- IS, WHERE-IS. Seller, will not make any repairs as a result of any building, occupancy, or environmental inspections. Buyer will be required to sign an Auction Purchase & Sale Agreement if final bid is accepted by Sellers.
