About this property
Prime Location! 2BR-2 Acre Retreat Minutes from Downtown Galena & Attractions
Experience a peaceful, cozy, country getaway in this home away from home. While only a 7-minute drive to downtown Galena, or a 20-minute drive to Dubuque, this split-level home offers gorgeous views of surrounding nature while also including plenty of room inside and outside for you, friends, or family to enjoy. If you’re lucky, you’ll be able to see a variety of local wildlife, including deer, foxes, owls, etc.! The outdoor deck, lower patio, and yard are wonderful spots to relax, explore, or stargaze. The scenic roads this home is located on are wonderful for daytime walking while still being less than 3 miles from town. Even in winter months, you can happily enjoy snowy scenery, Christmas time shopping in downtown Galena, or skiing at Chestnut Mountain Resort. In a world of investment properties and rentals, rest assured knowing we’re offering stays in our family home of +40 years as a means to hold onto this house until the next generation is able to reside here in a few short years. Because of this, the house has recently undergone some much-needed construction, with multiple projects still in the pipeline. *Doorbell camera on property for security. **Coming Soon- Hot Tub- August 2025
