Main Street building less than a block from the river with a beautiful view of the Black Hawk Bridge. The owner has put so much time and love into renovating this building. Paying special attention to the details. Original stained glass windows greet you as you enter the building. The main level was once used as an ice cream parlor and still features the bar, stools and gorgeous mirror. The upper level boasts a "king suite" with incredible views of the Main Channel and the bridge and a "queen suite" with a full kitchen. Both units may be rented out nightly or for an extended amount of time. The king suite is very spacious with a large bath and extra sitting room. The back deck is finished off with iron railing and no maintenance deck boards. Spiral staircase leads down to the street level and a private garden area.
