    What's special

    New England/Queen Anne style Victorian home situated on the south bank of the Illinois and Fox Rivers featuring 3 levels of incredible river views. The property sits on the banks of the Town of Two Rivers in the Heart of Starved Rock Country! This home is full of character, leaded glass windows, three fireplaces, vaulted ceilings, spacious bedrooms, and a living room with french doors to family room. In the back, there's an outdoor sauna and a carriage house that offers a 2-car garage plus a second level heated rec room. New slate roof and copper gutters. The property is currently a fully-functional Bed and Breakfast and one of the only ones in the immediate area. Also, turn-key, walk-in-the-door to a beautiful one-of-a-kind single family home! Perfectly located near public boat docks, launch ramps, as well as Allen Park, a beautiful riverfront park. The house is walking distance to the Illinois River bridge and downtown Ottawa's shopping and restaurant district. History is key as the property sits on the once occupied Fort Johnson!

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
