This 1870 Colonial style home has taken on a complete transformation. Every room has been transformed into an elegant living space. From the moment you step into the front door, you will appreciate the restoration that has taken place. From the stairway on your right as you walk in, to the kitchen in the rear of the home, you will notice so much attention to detail. The living room and dining room are open to each other so visiting with family and friends can be done comfortably without crowding. The wall between the dining room and kitchen has been stripped down to expose the original brick structure. This makes a great accent wall and gives you just hint of the past for that nostalgic feel. In the kitchen you will find all stainless-steel appliances, white wooden cabinets, granite countertops, and a center island that can double as a breakfast bar. Along the South side of the kitchen, there is a walk-in pantry large enough for an extra fridge or a stand-up freezer, a half bath, and the laundry room. The furnace and tankless water heater are conveniently located in a closet area as well. Very well thought out floor plan! Out the back door of the kitchen you will find a large deck where you can entertain with summer barbeques and just off the deck there is a fire pit ready for you to roast some marshmallows while you watch the family enjoy the massive side yard!
The primary bedroom (with a walk-in closet) and full bath are located on the main level. Upstairs you will find 3 more bedrooms and another full bath. There are some great views from the back bedroom windows. You can the see the Champ Clark bridge spanning the mighty Mississippi River! 2 of the bedrooms are very spacious with large closets. The smaller bedroom is still a nice size at 10x10 but I can almost see this as an office space or maybe a toy room.
In the basement you will find two separate storage areas. You can access them at the back of the house, just off the deck. Follow the newly installed pavers and decorative blocks that create the sidewalk and steps to the basement.
In the evenings, grab your glass of wine and take it out onto the upper covered porch and watch the sun set. Relax, enjoy, and just imagine the stories this house could share if these walls could talk…
