Looking for history! This Victorian Masterpiece has been loved by just two owners since it was built in 1890 by renowned architect F.E.Hyde. The Bissell family from 1890-1977 and the Mozena family from 1977-2023. The author Richard Bissell, from The Pajama Games fame and his wife were the last of the Bissell family to reside here. This home has been lovingly restored by the Mozena family and has been featured in Midwest Living, Riverland, and The Iowan. It has also served as a site for several films and multiple historic home tours. This home retains outstanding millwork of Butternut and Quarter Sawn Oak, as well as vintage lighting. Upgrades include, new kitchen with hand made cabinetry in original style, geo thermal to provide heating and cooling with backup high efficiency boiler, solar panels augment electrical production, windows have been replicated with thermo- efficient replacement, and siding has been replicated with Hardie Board for reduced maintenance and historic compliance. The entrance is comprised of double 500# oak doors with beveled glass. There is a long reception hall with coffered oak ceiling leading to an ornate 3 story staircase. Additional unique features include a large dance or billiard room on the third floor. There is a 700 bottle capacity wine cellar in the basement.
