About This Home

As of December 2020

Are you looking for a historic retreat or full time home in Galena that is fully updated and renovated? This brick townhome, with no association, offers the best of both worlds. With the unique character from built-in shelving, crown molding, and open staircase, to modern comforts like updated electrical, plumbing, thermopane windows, rubber roof, brand new central air (July 2020), and an automatic built in whole house generator. No expense was spared when renovating this home. Located only one block up from Main Street Galena, you have endless options for entertainment, shopping, and restaurants a short walk away. No yard to maintain, only a private courtyard and landscaped terrace to enjoy! And if you want to make it even easier, the recently purchased furnishings are negotiable on a separate purchase agreement. The main level provides a living room, dining room, full bath, kitchen, and butler's pantry/wine tasting room. Upstairs master bedroom is bright and airy with a balcony overlooking the terrace to enjoy your morning coffee or evening cocktail. Additional upstairs bedroom also has a bonus room for additional sleeping quarters. The laundry room is conveniently located on the upper level with ample storage, a fold out desk, built in cabinets, and a secret hidden closet! Upper bath has a walk-in shower and whirlpool bathtub. The basement has been converted into a 247 sq. ft. wine cellar beautifully finished with an arched brick ceiling that is not included in the square footage. So many bonuses with this property, it is impossible to list them all! Schedule a showing to fully appreciate the craftsmanship and attention to detail in this Galena gem!  OPEN HOUSE THIS SATURDAY: November 21st from 2:00-4:00 (masks and social distancing required)
