Stately 4 bed/2.5 bath historic brick with loads of potential nestled on the hillside high above Main Street, Galena in an incredible location that offers absolutely breathtaking seasonal cityscapes from a high elevation and deep vistas of the distant countryside for miles. Imagine a time long since passed as you look out over Downtown Galena from the idyllic front porch that welcomes you on approach, providing an amazing perspective that few properties can offer. Entry opens to greeting hall with cranberry glass light fixture that feeds to main level offering high ceilings throughout, generous living room with fireplace, large family room/parlor with built-in wall shelving and cabinetry, spacious dining room with built-in arched shelving, conveniently located powder room, and big kitchen with lots of cabinetry that has walk-out access to rear staircase to yard and adjoining storage shed/workshop space. Head upstairs to find four comfortable bedrooms, the front with soaring views of all the historic beauty beyond and the center with an ornate bay window alcove, two full bathrooms (one to front and one to rear), laundry room/mud room, and walk-out access to tiered rear yard with plenty of room to roam and stone remnants of outbuildings long since gone. Limestone patio runs alongside of house that was likely parking for vehicle or carriage at one point, but no vehicle access currently exists. Manicured fenced front yard is highlighted by large stone retaining wall. A truly historic gem with lots of possibilities!
