Property Description
Perched on a corner lot with sweeping views of the Mississippi River, this stately historic Tudor-style home has been cherished by the same family for three generations. Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated, the home seamlessly blends timeless character with modern comfort. Step inside and be welcomed by stunning quarter-sawn oak floors, rich natural woodwork, elegant French doors, custom built-in benches, and decorative copper radiator covers that showcase the craftsmanship of a bygone era. The main level features a spacious living room, formal dining room, a half bath, sun-filled sunroom, and a functional kitchen complete with all appliances and the home's original tile flooring, preserving its historic charm. Upstairs, you'll find four generous bedrooms, including a primary suite with its own private bath and walk-in closet. A newly added laundry area within the primary closet adds modern convenience, while an additional full bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. The walk-up attic offers exciting potential for future finished living space, while the partially finished lower level provides a comfortable den, rec room, second laundry area, and multiple dedicated storage spaces. Recent improvements include a new roof (2021), central air conditioning (2016), boiler (2020), east bathroom renovation (2021), and fresh exterior paint (2025), allowing the next owner to enjoy peace of mind for years to come. This remarkable river-view home is a rare opportunity!
