Description

Opportunity awaits in the historic village of Elsah, IL: this nearly 1-acre wooded parcel offers a rare chance to build your dream home in one of Illinois’s most charming river towns. Nestled off Mill Street, this secluded lot backs up to natural woodland and is ideal for a residence with a walkout-style lower level. Situated just off the scenic Great River Road (Meeting of the Great Rivers Byway), Elsah lies between Alton and Grafton and is steeped in preserved 19th-century character — the entire village was designated a historic district in 1973. Stroll its quiet lanes and you’ll discover stone cottages, Greek Revival and Gothic Revival homes, a historic downtown of masonry storefronts, charming inns, shops, and restaurants. Just minutes away you'll find Grafton, IL, known for its boutique shops, river access, wineries, and boating adventures. Nearby Pere Marquette State Park offers scenic bluff-top views, wooded trails, eagle watching in winter, and access to riverside recreation. Bonus: Sellers have previously had home plans drawn up and approved for the site, and they are happy to share them with the buyer. This lot presents a rare combination: privacy, wooded setting, proximity to historic village life, and river-town amenities just minutes away. Don’t miss your chance to build in a place where time seems to slow down.
