About This Home
As of October 2020RARE OPPORTUNITY to own a beautiful vintage home with an outstanding view of the Illinois River and within walking distance to Nostalgic Downtown Morris! Many days and evenings will be spent in the private fenced backyard, relaxing while taking in the views, perennial gardens and nature on the multi-level decks and stamped patio, which overlook the I&M Canal and Illinois River. If it's too warm, too cool or raining outside, no worries, you can enjoy it all from inside the river house! The river house shows off with open beam ceilings and hosts a huge 39X15 great room with bar, kitchen with granite counter tops and SS refrigerator, stone fireplace with gas logs and a half bath. Additionally, the river house offers a 15X15 rec room. As you move from the backyard views and amenities of your own river house to the main home, you'll quickly fall in love, feeling the warmth of home and pride of ownership. On the main level you will be drawn in by the gleaming original hardwood floors and woodwork throughout the living room, dining room and office. The office could easily be turned into a 4th bedroom on the main level, having a large closet which still includes a pull out rack, which the original owner, a Grundy County judge, hung his robes on. The huge eat-in kitchen, including original built-ins, has an abundance of cabinetry, finishes and detail, including a large chef surround with tile backsplash encompassing the range, granite counter tops, tile floors, SS appliances, built in beverage cooler, beamed ceiling and of course, views of the Illinois River. The original staircase and banister will lead you upstairs where you will find the master suite with bath and huge 11X11 walk in closet. 2 more bedrooms, each with their own large walk in closets, are flaked by another full bath. The basement is completely dry, with large laundry area, plenty of room for storage, outside access and a large wine cellar. If you aren't enjoying the river views, you may find yourself situated on the enclosed front porch reading or just enjoying the small, hometown sights and sounds of kids riding bikes and playing or neighbors walking with family, friends and/or their pets. This outstanding and immaculate home and river house has a lot to offer it's next owner. Many updates, upgrades and newer components include electric, plumbing, HVAC, roof, tankless water heater, siding and windows. The entire interior of the home has recently been freshly pained in neutral tones. You'll be amazed with the love, pride of ownership, care and maintenance this home has received. Call and schedule your private viewing today!
