Originally homesteaded by William Mulford and his family in the early 1820's this property has served many purposes over the years. It has been said that it was used as a stagecoach stop between Chicago and Galena. A rare opportunity to own a piece of history on 5 acres in the heart of Rockford. The brick two story sits up on the hill with a grand presence. As you come in the double doors off the front of the house you're greeted by a beautiful wood staircase and hallway that leads you into the formal family room with tall ceilings, hardwood floors, and fireplace. This flows nicely into the dining room area and into the kitchen. First floor master bedroom with access to the full bathroom. Upstairs you have 4 good sized bedrooms as well as a full bathroom. 2 additional room in the rear of the upstairs that could be offices or walk-in closets. Second staircase takes you down to the kitchen and dining room area. Outside you have a large deck off the rear of the house that looks over the backyard and greenhouse. Multiple entry points into the property. A nice circle drive up by the house that leads down to the barn. The barn has an access driveway on the east side of the property. The historic 86x44 barn has room for parking vehicles, work shop, as well as 3 stalls and two loft areas. The house is situated in the middle of the property. 2 acres +/- of overgrown field on the west side that provides additional opportunity. Unfinished lower level provides tons of storage. First floor laundry. Enclosed porch. Zoned Industrial.
