Here is your rare opportunity to own this "character-rich" 1920's home featuring original oak flooring and artisan woodwork. As you enter through the enclosed front porch, you're greeted by a lovely living room with a wood-burning fireplace to the left and a cozy main-floor family room to the right. The home has a main-floor master, a full bath, a formal dining room with its own butler's pantry featuring charming built-in cabinetry, and an eat-in kitchen. From the dining room, you can walk onto the rear deck that overlooks the Mighty Mississippi. The upstairs provides 3 bedrooms (with French doors between two of the rooms - could be a dressing room or an office), another full bath, and the laundry area. There is a full basement that you walk through to access the 30 x 40 garage. The garage could easily fit 4 cars and has a work bench and shelving, and a heater. This home is the perfect blend of the 1920's charm with some more modern updates. New & beautiful wrought iron fencing surrounds the front yard, with brick pathways. All of this sits directly across from Fort Madison's beautiful Old Settler's Park, enticing you to enjoy the shelter house, the beautiful play area, paths to stroll along and mature shade trees for those summer night walks. Call today on this beautiful home. The price is right and is waiting on its new family!!! (Property sells "AS IS")
