This historic home sits on 4+/- acres with an interesting view of the Mississippi River. History has it that the original home was built during the Civil War by the Cole family which also had the first corn mill on the river where ConAgra is now located. The home has been occupied by the same owner for the past 34 years and improvements have been made. The style of the home is called Italianate and the main style and architecture can still be found in the details of the porch and overhang. A two-car garage has been added onto the home along with other updates. The pool is used year to year and is conveniently located in the fenced yard overlooking the Mississippi River. On the main level of the home are 2 bathrooms, laundry room, foyer - large hall, family room, office, dining room, living room, kitchen and three fireplaces (one with a gas insert). Upstairs are 4 bedrooms, one bath, and a fireplace. History period mill work and 11-foot ceilings are prominent on the main level.
