    Have you had a quiet little desire to open a Bed & Breakfast? How about always wanting to own a historical home, or one in the country on a sprawling piece of land? Ever thought about being from the era of log cabin living? If you said YES to any (or all!) of these, then just keep reading! This beautiful plantation style home on 2.6 acres just west of Galesburg has so much class and charm, and it brings you back in time in style. Built in 1867 by Army Captain Elisha Atchison for his wife Nabbie, this five bedroom, three bath home has three floors of character. Add in an oversized Man Cave or Hobby Room, and a three car garage, both of which have radiant heat in the floor, and it indeed has it all, and then some. The beautifully landscaped yard is a peaceful retreat and boasts an amazing Koi pond just a few steps from the kitchen door. The Purington Paver walkway and front step leads you up to the fabulous porch for relaxing with an amazing view of the expansive front yard and tree lined driveway. The yard is also home to a log cabin that pulls you into a time not forgotten. A pole barn, cute little She Shed, and many different types of beautiful perennials finish out the oasis that you will love being in. This is a must see, so call to set up your own showing and feel the peace and tons of space this home and yard can offer you!
