Property Description
Just off The Great River Road, Route 100, in the Village of Elsah sits this handsome, Circa 1859 stone cottage. The stone portion was built by William F. Greene a chair maker & carpenter. These structures are rare to find standing strong & in as beautiful condition as #74 Mill. There IS work yet to be done depending on how many luxuries of modern life you can & can't live w/o. If you've been looking for a return to a time when the world was less complicated & you were surrounded & soothed by mum nature...you might want to HURRY on over. You'll find some stunning original wide plank floors, some original hand blown panes of glass intact, you'll see a rugged beamed ceiling with rough sawn board/batten paneling framing a seasoned & rather large brick/mortar fireplace...once the main heat source in this cozy home. Newer frame additions were added c1940 & forward w/heart pine floors & pickwick pine paneling! You'll love the eat-in kitchen & full bath, both with essential modern appliances!
