Beautifully restored 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home located in historic Grand Detour sits on a .60 acre lot and features a stone fireplace (naturally!) and restored hardwood floors throughout.

Tastefully decorated and featuring an updated kitchen with marble counter tops, Thermador range, apron sink, prep sink & amazing cabinets! Upstairs you will find 3 bedrooms, an updated bathroom with large soaking tub & laundry! With a white picket fence and perennials abound, this property is simply enchanting!
