Timeless Charm Meets Breathtaking Rock Riverfront Living Welcome to your dream retreat on the Rock River-where classic craftsmanship, serene water views, and endless character come together on nearly 3/4 of an acre of beautifully landscaped land. This lovingly maintained home is rich with natural woodwork, original built-ins, and thoughtful details throughout, offering a rare blend of history, comfort, and opportunity. Step inside to find several inviting rooms, perfect for everything from quiet reading nooks to lively gatherings. Built-in bookcases, custom woodwork, and stunning views from nearly every room create an atmosphere of warmth and timeless elegance. Whether you're sipping coffee in the charming breakfast nook, unwinding on the screened-in porch with the river breeze at your back, or enjoying the tranquility of the enclosed upstairs sleeping porch, you'll find endless places to relax and reconnect with nature. With 4 to 5 bedrooms, depending on your needs, this home adapts to your lifestyle-including home office space. The ultra-clean unfinished basement offers exceptional storage or workshop potential, while the expansive third-floor attic is a blank canvas for future living space. Outside, you'll be captivated by fantastic river frontage with a sea wall and a setting that feels like a private sanctuary. The circular drive offers convenience and curb appeal, and the entire property reflects years of pride in ownership. Utilities are impressively efficient, averaging under $10 a day. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of classic riverfront living, with room to grow and views to fall in love with-inside and out.
