Welcome to this beautiful historic 1840s brick home in the perfect location, only minutes from Historic downtown Galena with its many shops, restaurants and activities. A seamless blend of old and new. Since 2016 much of this home has been painstakingly improved with the home's historic value in mind. All ceilings repaired and painted, wainscoting added in dining room, all new wallcoverings, new doors throughout, wood floors refinished, all woodwork either repaired or replaced and painted, new replica or antique light fixtures downstairs, new sold oak stair treads and new risers. All new kitchen - plumbing, electrical, cabinets, granite countertops and luxury vinyl tile flooring. New plumbing, custom granite vanity and tile floor in the first-floor bath. New energy efficient windows on the first floor - second floor windows were replaced in an earlier renovation with energy efficient combination windows. Upstairs a new bathroom was built in a former sitting room with a large tiled walk-in shower. The former upstairs bath was converted to a walk-in closet for the master bedroom. Other mechanical improvements include two new HVAC systems with separate dual zone controls, new sump pump in basement, added blown in insulation in the attic, spray foam insulation on basement walls and wood deck floor in basement. Exterior painting, including the roof, replaced bridge lath with wooden spindles. Existing garage was repaired, re-roofed and spray foam insulation on walls, as well as new concrete driveway. Rebuild limestone wall and extensive landscaping. The beautifully landscaped lower garden and patio offers a great atmosphere to sip your morning coffee or grill out or venture across the bridge and up the hill to the hilltop patio for a fire and glass of wine overlooking the house and Galena hills. It's a "must see" to appreciate the meticulous renovation that went into making this an incredible home.
