## Description

### Agent Description
Charming brick Italianate filled with character and located just minutes from Galena's historic Main Street. The main level offers a traditional living room, dining room and kitchen, enhanced by warm pine floors, beautiful woodwork and a distinctive bay window area that brings architectural interest and natural light to the home. Upstairs are two bedrooms, including one with its own kitchenette and a cozy gas wood-stove-style fireplace. The second-floor bay window echoes the beautiful architectural detail below. Off-street parking is an added convenience in this downtown location. Zoned Downtown Commercial while also allowing residential use, the property offers wonderful flexibility - continue its use as a charming residence, explore a commercial opportunity, or create a combination of the two, subject to applicable city requirements. A distinctive piece of Galena architecture with character, location and possibilities rarely found together.
