    Overview

    This Federal-style brick duplex features Greek Revival influences and two separate, well-appointed residences. One side is licensed and operated as a City of Galena short-term rental with four-person occupancy and includes three bedrooms and three full baths, a kitchen, a spacious dining area for entertaining, and a living room centered around a cozy wood stove. That residence also offers a private paver patio and expansive windows framing the surrounding vistas. The adjoining residence is set up for owner occupancy or long-term rental use, with an updated kitchen, generous living room, dining area, three bedrooms, and three baths, plus an upper-level laundry/mudroom and private aggregate patio. Historic details throughout include original woodwork, period built-ins, wide-plank wood flooring, and decorative fireplaces, along with expansive covered front porch space.

    The property sits high atop Quality Hill on Prospect Street, offering panoramic views described in the listing of the surrounding hills and countryside and sightlines that include Grant’s Home and Horseshoe Mound, as well as the lights of historic Main Street and the Park Avenue skyline. The home also includes separate attic spaces above each residence, individual basement/cellar areas, and an attached one-car open garage/carport with a pass-through storage shed that provides convenient rear access to both residences.

    For tenants, buyers, or operators, the layout supports either multi-family flexibility or owner-occupied use paired with a separately functioning licensed vacation rental. The dual-residence configuration, multiple outdoor areas, and separate storage and lower-level spaces provide practical day-to-day separation while keeping both sides under one property ownership.
