Description

Built in 1847 this charming schoolhouse has been converted into a masterpiece of a home. As you enter into the kitchen living room combo, you will notice the vaulted ceilings that were once two very low ceilings and now have a been transformed into a large open room. The two large bedrooms and two full baths add to the detailed renovation. Two of the outer brick walls were completely re-constructed. Beautiful new hardwood flooring installed, and roof was replaced, walls have all been dry walled and painted. New furnace and air conditioning, new electrical and plumbing, plus new stainless-steel appliances. The outside trim has also been all newly painted. Venturing outside you will notice a new sidewalk to the barn that has been converted into a garage and freshly painted. It is located on a large lot with mature trees. It is a short distance to Grant Park, the bike path and across the pedestrian bridge to downtown Galena with its many unique shops and restaurants. A must see to appreciate all the renovation that has been completed. Seller is a real estate licensee.

    "we know all our neighbors and their pets and kids. people here are caring. Everyone knows everyone. Not handicapped compliant town for wheelchairs though. Great little transit with fun drivers! Beautiful area. Deer and wild turkeys in your backyard is awesome. Great Police and fire department. People ❤2 GOSSIP here! SAFE place to land but a vehicle is a must. Town lacks in having entertainment like theater and limited shopping and amenities . "
