Just off The Great River Road, Route 100, in the Village of Elsah sits this handsome, Circa 1859 stone cottage. The stone portion was built by William F. Greene a chair maker & carpenter. These structures are rare to find standing strong & in as beautiful condition as #74 Mill. There IS work yet to be done depending on how many luxuries of modern life you can & can't live w/o. If you've been looking for a return to a time when the world was less complicated & you were surrounded & soothed by mum nature...you might want to HURRY on over. You'll find some stunning original wide plank floors, some original hand blown panes of glass intact, you'll see a rugged beamed ceiling with rough sawn board/batten paneling framing a seasoned & rather large brick/mortar fireplace...once the main heat source in this cozy home. Newer frame additions were added c1940 & forward w/heart pine floors & pickwick pine paneling! You'll love the eat-in kitchen & full bath, both with essential modern appliances!
