BRICK BEAUTY!! This charming 11/2-story, 3-bedroom, 2-bath home is overflowing with character, craftsmanship, and timeless appeal. Lovingly maintained by the same owners for the past 50 years, this special property has had only two owners since it was built-the original owner was also the builder, and an article sharing the home's history is included in the disclosures. From the moment you arrive, you'll be impressed by the meticulously manicured lawn, beautiful landscaping, retaining wall, and the unique boulder in the front yard, which symbolizes the highest point in Moline. The welcoming enclosed front porch is the perfect place to relax with your morning coffee or unwind after a long day. Step inside to discover a spacious living room featuring a cozy gas log fireplace, stunning original woodwork, and the warmth and charm that only a classic home can offer. The main level includes two generously sized bedrooms, an updated full bath with a walk-in shower, a formal dining room with beautiful built-in hutches to display your heirlooms and collectibles, and an updated kitchen filled with natural light, ample cabinetry, and all stainless steel appliances included. The upper level offers a huge third bedroom, providing endless possibilities for a primary suite, guest room, home office, or hobby space. The finished basement expands your living space with a comfortable recreation room, a full bath with shower, a finished room complete with a shampoo basin, plus a workshop/utility room offering excellent storage and workspace. Step outside to your own private backyard retreat! The beautifully landscaped, privacy-fenced yard features an awesome pergola with a concrete patio attached to the 2-car detached garage-perfect for entertaining, outdoor dining, or summer BBQs. A separate deck marks the location of a previous hot tub, and the electrical hookup remains in place should you wish to install another. Recent updates include three mini-split systems providing efficient heating and cooling (2018), boiler (2013), water heater (2023), roof (2012), and most windows have been replaced. This truly one-of-a-kind home has been lovingly cared for and thoughtfully maintained for generations. Now it's ready for its next owners to create memories and cherish it for the next 50 years.
