Overlooking the Mississippi River, you'll find this exquisite 1922 classic 6-bed, 4-bath home sitting on the corner on top of the hill. Sit a while on the porch and just take in the view. You may feel a bit nostalgic when this area of Chester was bustling with turn-of-the-century growth. The Historic Landmark hotel sits just below. So much history! The view of the Mississippi watching barges and boats passing through is a peaceful way to spend an afternoon or watch the sunset. This home is currently the Hospitality House and guests stay for $25 donation per night. Think of what you can do with this as a bed and breakfast, a VRBO, air bnb? A very large family could also have plenty of room to spread out. The home has been very well maintained with new roof in 2020; replacement windows throughout in 2015 & 2017; new downstairs furnace 2013; new sewer line/water lines 2010 and 2024. Come see the beautiful restored staircase for yourself. Sits on 2 lots. Come and see! Suitable for Bed/Brk
