Schneider House
553 North Marion
Oak Park
2010 Historic Preservation
Award
This landmark house was built in 1899 for the Schneider family, Oak Park merchants.
The Queen Ann residence exterior was restored and two small additions containing a
mud room and a dining porch built. The additions were not only functional but created
more privacy in the garden while establishing a more human scale. The interior was
completely rebuilt restoring or replacing the period details, setting the stage for the
family’s taste for modern art and furnishings. The property received an 8 year Historic
Property Tax Freeze in 2010.
