1015 Hanson St., Murphysboro, IL 62966

This stately, brick home was built in 1907 as the parsonage for the First Evangelical Lutheran Church. The home was transformed with 21st century amenities while retaining its charm. Being located on a double lot and near downtown makes it a wonderful candidate for a B & B. The home has original, gorgeous hardwood floors, pocket doors, tall ceilings, and sunlit rooms. The kitchen has modern cabinets, solid surface countertops, and an island for entertaining. It offers 5 bedrooms on 3 floors and a workshop in a full dry basement (thanks to French drain and sump system). Bathrooms are modern and chic. The master suite has a large closet with built-ins. Outside, a secret garden offers privacy with peach, pear and fig trees, along with covered porch & treehouse.
