Built in 1939, by renowned Cedar Rapids philanthropists, Howard and Margaret Hall, originally as a weekend retreat cabin, called the Pal House. This tudor style home was thoughtfully designed by Howard to reflect his love of water and as a place to relax and enjoy the natural beauty of Palisades Park. Built from locally sourced, square cut dolomite limestone, this home is situated on a 90 foot cliff overlooking the Cedar River and Palisades Park. A copper roof was added in 2010 by the current owner. Upon entering the cabin, youll notice the waterfall feature and iron gate. The open concept dining and living room features a statement limestone fireplace and has a nautical theme throughout. There are panoramic views of Palisades Park and the Cedar River. The primary bedroom and bathroom were completely remodeled in 2010. Meticulous care was taken to ensure the integrity and continuity of the home was maintained with this remodel. The primary bathroom features a walk-in shower, copper sink, built in cabinets, and a concealed stackable washer and dryer. The primary bedroom has a cedar lined closet. There is a galley style kitchen with stainless steel appliances. There is a hidden entrance to the basement in the kitchen.
