Property Description

Historic charm meets modern comfort in this captivating brick miner's cottage with spacious contemporary addition, beautifully situated on .40 acres of natural beauty along a private street in the heart of Galena! Offering the rare combination of in-town convenience and a peaceful, country-like setting, this distinctive 2-bedroom home blends the character of its historic origins with inviting living spaces, exposed brick walls, rustic wood beams, hardwood flooring, and seasonal distant views across the valley toward Galena's East Side. Step inside to discover a cozy living room highlighted by exposed brick, woodburning fireplace, and warm architectural details, opening to a charming sitting area with arched brick entry that leads to the expansive addition. The spacious kitchen features abundant cabinetry, stainless appliances, granite countertops, a beautiful limestone-topped center island with breakfast bar seating, and an open layout that flows seamlessly into the generous dining area and dramatic great room. Soaring vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, abundant windows, and a wall of glass overlooking the wooded surroundings fill the great room with natural light, while a freestanding woodburning stove adds warmth and ambiance. French doors open to a large elevated deck, perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or simply enjoying the surrounding treetops and visiting wildlife. Upstairs find two comfortable bedrooms: one is a loft overlooking the great room, now used as an art studio. Attached is an updated bathroom with soaking tub. A second bedroom is a peaceful space in front. In between, a third upstairs room could be an office or bright creative space with skylights inside and outside the room. Thoughtful improvements include a newer metal roof (2020), furnace and central air (2019), updated kitchen appliances, limestone island countertop (2023), granite kitchen counters (2025), renovated upper bath (2019), renovated main-level bath (2026), and water heater (2024). Outside, the beautifully treed and landscaped grounds offer mature plantings, colorful perennials, stone walkways, a charming brick-paver patio, fenced yard, and generous outdoor space to enjoy the changing seasons. A paved off-street parking area adds convenience. All this just a short distance from the shopping, dining, and attractions of historic Main Street Galena. A truly special property where timeless character, modern updates, and an enchanting natural setting come together to create an exceptional in-town retreat!
