Property Description

High on history, high on views, high on charm! Step back in time with all the modern comforts in this newly renovated 1800s miner's cottage. Where historic charm meets flexible living space and serene privacy, all just steps from downtown Galena. Set on three wooded city lots, this remarkable property offers the perfect blend of privacy and convenience, with daily deer sightings and a tranquil, secluded atmosphere. Relax under the pergola built from repurposed materials from the Dubuque Milwork District on a stunning stone patio crafted from local materials, enjoy sweeping views from the expansive deck, follow the wooded path to a cozy fire pit, or watch summer thunderstorms roll in from the covered front porch. Inside, you'll find a layout that adapts to your needs: * Main floor primary suite * Finished attic with two rooms that could serve as bedrooms, office, nursery, or a sitting area. * Basement with two more rooms-great for bedrooms, studio space, or hobby rooms-plus a walkout to a covered patio. * guest suite with bath under the garage, ideal for visitors, an art studio, or even a rental opportunity. That's up to five sleeping rooms, plus an extra space to truly make your own. The home blends rustic character with modern updates, giving you the freedom to design your dream lifestyle.
