Description

This stunning, recently remodeled home on Ottawa's beautiful south side offers the perfect blend of historic charm and modern convenience. Nestled on a double corner lot along the picturesque E Van Buren St., just blocks from the Illinois River and walking distance to downtown, this home provides endless indoor and outdoor entertainment potential. With 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and a spacious 2,749 square feet, the thoughtfully designed open floor plan creates seamless sight lines throughout the main level. Every detail of the interior and exterior was updated in 2019, including durable pressed wood siding and a sleek metal roof. The massive double lot provides abundant outdoor space and would be perfect for an in-ground pool. Inside, you'll find a first-floor master suite, a chef's kitchen with white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, and a stunning 10' island with contrasting gray cabinetry. The warmth of 3/4" hickory hardwood floors flows throughout, complementing the custom woodwork and craftsmanship found in every corner. Additional highlights include an oversized two-car garage, separate heating and cooling systems for each floor, a cozy gas fireplace in the living room, a 2-tiered paver patio, an unfinished waterproofed basement, and a charming covered porch with wood flooring and ceiling.

    "Need a vehicle to access most areas of Ottawa. Walking is an option, due to many sidewalks. Ottawa is limited because of only one bridge crossing the Illinois River. The Northeast side of town (where the High School located) is also limited because of only 2 ways in and out. Currently it has only 1 way due to construction. "

    "Sometimes there’s a festival or an event that blocks off roads and sometimes you don’t know when they’re happening so it’s a major inconvenience when you try to get to work and there’s a lot of traffic and no one moving. "

    "There’s a lot of other dogs so if your dog doesn’t like other dogs just be careful. Everyone picks up after there animals pretty well and most of the dogs are nice. A lot of them end up being aggressive with your dog but other than that it’s a lovely place for your dog. "

    "Location cannot be beat. Lovely area filled with unique styles of homes. Not a cookie-cutter development. Quiet, peaceful and friendly. Great mix of people of all ages. Well maintained homes make the North side a sought after location. Believe it or not, there are people who actually did not know this area of Ottawa exists. Close enough to the downtown area if you choose to take a nice walk to the riverfront. Good caring neighbors. Cannot emphasize enough how nice and tranquil it is in this area. Great School District, close to all churches and Ottawa Regional Hospital and Medical Center. Definately a lovely place to live. "
