1869 Historic Italian Villa on the Bluff
About this space
This special place is close to everything, with spectacular location on bluff with view of downtown Dubuque and the scenic river. This house which was built in 1869 is one of the oldest homes in Dubuque with close proximity to the historic 4th St. Elevator and walking distance to shopping and main street Dubuque. The Italian villa has a 3rd floor cupola with a fantastic must see view. This is a new listing for the Dubuque area. Looking forward to having you as our guest!
The space
Main floor has a modern kitchen, with a living room with historic mansion like windows and view. The dining room on the main floor has a large 10ft family table with 2 leaf extensions if needed for big family gathering. The 3 bedrooms are all on the 2nd floor with the full bath. The 3rd floor has a cupola as was a common trait of the historic Italian villas.
Guest access
You will have access to the home via convenient keypad entry. The basement and 5 stall garage will not be accessible as is a separate unit.
