Historic Barloga Home on Edgewater’s Waterfront Row! One of only twelve homes with full water views, this 1924 Jesse Barloga residence pairs original architectural character with meaningful updates and a rare .3 acre lot. From spring through fall, watch the turn of the seasons from the screened porch. Morning coffee belongs in the front sitting room, looking out over the water. Direct bike-path access and a short walk to Sinnissippi Park or Rockford Country Club make it easy to spend the day outdoors. Inside, Barloga’s details still lead: original built-ins, French doors, picture rail, and fireplace, plus generous closets and storage throughout. Practical upgrades include an attached garage, yard irrigation, and a fully fenced backyard that wraps the driveway. Main level: Foyer, living room, formal sitting room, dining room, kitchen with butler’s pantry, and a guest half bath. Upper level: Four spacious bedrooms and a large bonus room suited as a playroom, office, or guest space. Two full baths including one converted into a private primary en-suite. Custom closets in three bedrooms. Primary suite: Two large closets plus an additional 200 sq. ft. bonus space with a bay-window reading nook and custom shelving making it ready to use as a walk-in closet, office, home gym, or extra laundry. Waterfront on the doorstep, Timeless on the inside. Own a rare piece of history!
