Expanding over 4,000 square feet, this legal duplex features a first floor with a charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath unit complete with a gas fireplace, leaded glass cabinets, and captivating river views. The upper two floors serve as a family retreat, featuring 6 bedrooms and 5 full baths.

Designed by renowned architect Fred A Henderich in 1910, the home underwent meticulous restoration between 2010 and 2012. Led by Historic Homes specialist Elaine D'Arnold, the remodel included a replacement of the 100-year-old Cedar Shake exterior with new shakes, ensuring historical authenticity. The copper roof and gutters, about 20 years old, stand as rare, high quality features.
