This beautiful light-filled home sits on a 19,250 sq. ft. corner lot in historical New Canton, IL. The only official "town" in Illinois, New Canton is located in West Central Pike County, the place to "be" during whitetail deer season or to enjoy the fall colors and scenic vistas. This home would make a beautiful bed and breakfast, hunting lodge, multi-family home, or large single family home. There are 3 bedrooms upstairs with a full bath. Downstairs has 2 bedrooms including the Master Bedroom with attached bath including a Jacuzzi tub and double vanity. Unlike most historical homes, this one has plenty of storage areas. Huge closets upstairs and down as well as a butler's pantry, three storage attics, metal tool shed, and 2-car garage with work bench, shelves, and overhead storage provide plenty of storage. Located at the bottom of the oak staircase is a sun room with floor to ceiling windows. This had been a music room, then later used as an office. With a shared kitchen downstairs, the upstairs has 1 large room that could be used for living, while the 2 bedrooms and full bath and separate entrance would make it attractive for those who want to take care of parents. There are beautiful hard woods throughout the home: floors, moldings, doors, & windows. Downstairs living room, bedrooms, bath, and sunroom have 10 foot ceilings. The large updated kitchen is connected to the butler's pantry/laundry room with large ceiling to floor storage closets and shelves. A new 16' x 18' deck is the perfect venue to BBQ and overlook the beautiful back yard. Another bonus is the insulated and wired 12' x 24' craft, storage, or "man room" building independent of the main dwelling. The attached 24' x 28' two-car garage includes a large work bench, storage shelves, entry door, handicap ramp, and double garage door with opener. Sit in the evenings on your enclosed porch and enjoy the slower lane of life. Located along the bluff above the Mississippi River bottoms, New Canton is just a hop away from historical Hannibal, MO, birthplace of Mark Twain. Just a short drive away is Interstate 72, the east/west main highway across Illinois. Be sure to select "contact seller" and not the "realtor" when sending email.
