829 Edward Street

Description

Step into a captivating piece of Southern Illinois history at 829 Edward Street, nestled on a sprawling 0.43-acre corner lot in the peaceful village of St. Libory. Serving as a local hat shop in its early days, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home has been thoughtfully reimagined and lovingly updated to blend its storied past with modern conveniences — including a brand-new HVAC system installed in 2023, roof installed in 2018, gas water heater installed in 2014, and energy-efficient windows installed in 2006 with a 50-year transferable warranty. The main level is a showstopper, featuring sustainable bamboo flooring that flows seamlessly through the spacious living and dining areas, leading you to a kitchen that boasts brand-new, custom-crafted Amish cabinetry and granite countertops, as well as a new microwave and garbage disposal. Beyond the main residence, the property offers an incredible detached 24' x 36' two-story 2-car garage with 50-amp service and is so much more than just a place to park. This massive secondary building includes a dedicated "hang out" space with separate entrance — perfect for a home office or workout room — as well as a spacious loft with endless potential for a studio or hobby space. Situated in the Freeburg School district and just a short, easy commute from Scott Air Force Base, this home offers the perfect balance of small-town tranquility and modern convenience. Don't miss your chance to own a home where historic charm meets handcrafted quality in one of the region's most serene communities.
