Property Description

In the heart of Keokuk, Iowa's historic district, stands the 1850 SONGSTONE HOUSE - a stately reminder of a more gracious era built of solid brick and stone. SONGSTONE is an original Greek Revival style mansion. Guests are welcomed with an impressive foyer featuring an expansive winding walnut staircase, ornate chandeliers, crafted fireplace mantels, large windows and hardwood flooring. SONGSTONE has served as a single-family residence and as a multi-unit property with up to 5 apartments while maintaining main living quarters on the first floor. The basement has prerviously been rented as an apartment with ground-level access. The north half of the roof was replaced in 2024, and the main roof in 2019. Some renovation is needed, giving way to your own creativity. Heating is provided by a Crown Boiler, 2 Pellet Stoves and a Drolet Wood Burning stove. The washer, dryer, stove, refrigerator and freezer convey. The yard features mature trees, an orchard of fruit trees including apple, pear, and plum. Plantings including roses and lilies and cherry trees, along the front yard iron fencing, enhance privacy & beauty. Off street parking. Looking for a modestly priced historical home to enhance with your personal touch? Call for your personal showing.
