Description
Imagine waking up to the beauty of the Fox River just beyond your backyard. This one-of-a-kind, fully renovated unique home offers a rare blend of timeless character, meticulous craftsmanship, and Fox River waterfront living! Beautifully restored and thoughtfully updated, it's where historic charm meets modern comfort. Improvements include updated electrical and plumbing, raised ceilings, a redesigned kitchen, two remodeled bathrooms, new A/C (2020), freshly painted cedar siding (2021), and a new roof (2023). The custom kitchen is a standout, featuring handcrafted cabinetry made from 100-year-old reclaimed barn wood, White Oak butcher block countertops, a glass tile backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, and stainless steel appliances all overlooking the tranquil water views and the full mature trees. The main-level full bath offers a spacious walk-in shower, while the inviting front living room showcases oversized windows and a charming wood-burning stove. Upstairs, the primary suite impresses with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, a walk-in closet, and a beautifully updated bathroom featuring a live-edge Black Walnut vanity. Outside, the nearly 250-foot-lot is designed for enjoying the outdoors, with a six-foot privacy fence, brick paver patio, pergola, and terraced landscaping, firepit, all leading to the river. A four-season "river room" and party deck provide the perfect backdrop for entertaining or simply taking in the views. Even better, downtown Montgomery is within walking distance, yet this property feels like your own private waterfront retreat. Enjoy your favorite outdoor activities right from your backyard, or slow down and savor a quiet morning with coffee overlooking the peaceful waters of the Fox River. This is more than a home-it's a lifestyle! Location,location! This is a perfect one!
