About this property

The Vault / Historical 1800s Bank

Marble floors an walls to the original vault, this place is in the heart of downtown Fairfield il. Walking distance to all your local shops. I've added a speakeasy in the vault to replicate the 1920 era. With the luxury of today. This is one of my homes I renovated , to let others enjoy and overnight with fun , instead of a normal hotel stay. Has King & Queen size beds 1 roll out an a couch. Parking is out front, on the side an also a gravel lot across the street. This is downtown next to restaurants, shopping and near by park. Has a AC unit and controls, with radiant heater through out the building.

Eclipse stay
Unique and historical spot with a great pizza and coffee shop on the same block. The property is situated on main st which provides excellent access but does mean some road and traffic noise that could be difficult for a light sleeper.

Unique and terrific!
Wonderful place with a unique history. The old vault and safe are very cool We also discovered the game of bumper pool- how have I not played this before? We had a relaxing time away. Fairfield is a nice little town with lots of charming small businesses. We very much enjoyed it. Thank you!

Better then expected!
The pics & description doesn't do this place justice! It had arcade games, bumper pool, comfy beds & it was a rwally cool place to just look at the history, vault etc. Walkable to restaurants & shops. Perfect spot for a getaway!

Why they chose this property

The original Vault was still intact

What makes this property unique

The 1800s era downtown city style. This is not a hotel, so if your looking for that it's not here. It's old it's original an it's my place.
