A rare opportunity to own a substantial historic brick home filled with the architectural character and craftsmanship that make Galena homes so special. A grand entry hall introduces the home, with beautiful original woodwork continuing throughout the spacious formal living room, dining room and family room. Just off the dining room is a charming butler's pantry with built-ins, while the kitchen features quarter-sawn oak cabinetry and granite countertops. A back staircase is another wonderful original feature. Upstairs are four bedrooms, including two suites with adjoining sitting rooms and beautiful arched pocket doors separating the spaces. A newer bath and second-floor laundry add convenience, and a full staircase leads to the large walk-up attic with enormous potential. The exterior i s equally distinctive, with a screened front porch, side porch, handsome stone walls and iron fencing. A separate summer kitchen good for storage and brick-paver patio create a charming outdoor gathering area. Completing the property is an impressive two-story coach house/garage a particularly special feature and one seldom found today. Both Garage bays are wired with 220V for Electric Vehicles. Homes with this combination of scale, original detail and historic character are rarely available in Galena. The property offers beautiful bones and an opportunity for its next owner to update while preserving what makes it so distinctive. Home additionally features four non-working fireplaces.
