Step into a nostalgic holiday postcard in this 2,250 square foot mid-century ranch, originally built in 1949. This cozy home is a Weyerhaeuser Panel Home built by General Timber Service Inc in Dubuque, Iowa. It is believed that the home was partially built in Iowa and then shipped and erected on site in Geneva. The current homeowners purchased the home in 2013 and completed a 1,000 square foot addition in 2014 to make it a three bedroom, two bath home. The addition was designed by local architect Tim Nelson, and included the two exterior dormers, arbors on the front of the house and a pergola over the back patio. The surrounding landscape, designed by Plandscape, Inc., catches the soft glow of Christmas lights, and enhances the warm and inviting atmosphere that awaits inside.
Envelop yourself in the magic of the season and a touch of opulence with this stunning American Foursquare. Originally built in 1906 as the parsonage for the neighboring United Methodist Church, this home had a significant 2024 addition and remodel by Wetmore Construction. Situated just off Geneva’s Historic Third Street, this five-bedroom, five-bathroom beauty sparkles, creating a warm and festive space that captures the essence of holiday joy and is ready for a celebration!
