Description

Historic Elegance Meets Downtown Convenience
Experience the timeless charm of this stunning brick two-story home, perfectly situated just a short stroll from the vibrant heart of downtown Belleville. From seasonal festivities to local boutiques and fine dining, everything you love is right at your doorstep.

The Grand Main Level
The journey begins on the expansive covered front porch, an ideal sanctuary for morning coffee or evening relaxation. Inside, the home reveals its majestic character:

Entry & Living Room: A large foyer with a sweeping staircase welcomes you. The living room serves as a true centerpiece, featuring a wood-burning fireplace, elegant crown molding, and classic pocket doors.

Dining Room: Host dinners under a beautiful beamed ceiling. This room connects via a swing door to the butler’s pantry and features a glass door leading to the central hallway.

Kitchen: A bright, functional space equipped with appliances and access to a second "servant’s" staircase for easy access to the upper floor.

Comfortable Upper-Level Living
The second story is designed for both rest and utility:

Four Spacious Bedrooms: Plenty of room for family, guests, or a home office.

Unique Features: Includes a cedar chest closet, a full bathroom, and a separate water closet for added privacy.

Bonus Spaces: The rear bedroom provides access to a large unfinished attic (housing the central air system). Step out onto the screened-in back porch directly from the hallway to enjoy the breeze without the bugs.

Versatile Basement & Outdoors
The lower level and grounds offer unexpected extras that set this property apart:

The Basement: Features an exercise room with its own fireplace, plus a convenient shower and water closet.

The Backyard: Your private outdoor oasis includes a covered back porch, a fire pit, and a fenced area perfect for a dog run.

Parking: Ample space provided by both a carport and a detached garage.

Property Highlight: This home seamlessly blends "old world" architectural details—like glass hallway doors and majestic moldings—with the modern lifestyle of a walkable urban community.
