Step into a piece of history with the iconic "Marshall House"! Built in 1857, this stunning full brick Colonial offers 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, timeless character, and a view of the Mississippi River you simply can't recreate. Situated on an extra large lot, this one-of-a-kind property blends historic charm with modern updates. Adding even more value is the impressive 39 x 39 garage/shop built in 2021, complete with an additional bathroom-perfect for hobbyists, storage, or extra workspace. Inside, you'll find beautiful character throughout, along with a large kitchen installation completed in 2025 that brings modern convenience to this historic gem. The history here is truly unmatched. Once operating as a hotel in the 1800s, local legend even claims Abraham Lincoln stayed here during his campaign travels. Opportunities to own a home with this kind of story, charm, river views, and presence rarely come along. All kitchen appliances stay, as well as the washer and dryer.
