Welcome to the Telford House, an impressive Greek Revival built in approximately 1850 and sited on .55 acre homesite. The home is prominently perched on Park Avenue facing and overlooking the Galena River and offering breathtaking panorama of downtown Galena and beyond. Relax on the front porch with your morning coffee as you enjoy the unique setting with one of the few locations on Park Avenue where the front of the home was built to view the West side Galena Skyline. Appreciate the amazing views from the stone stairs and dramatic pillared porch leading to the entry that opens to light and bright foyer with stunning marble flooring that leads to the main level featuring beautifully appointed kitchen with soapstone counters, shiplap wall accents, floating shelving, stainless steel appliances, farm sink with windowed views directly facing downtown Galena. You will notice the decorative fireplace with ornate mantle and subway tile surround, plus the stunning wood flooring that flows to a generous dining room, a comfortable bedroom with access to the adjacent full bath featuring a clawfoot tub, and another additional bedroom to the rear of the home.
