5418 East Dr.

This is your rare opportunity to own a beautiful part of Loves Park and Rockford history. This mid-century home was designed and occupied by Gilbert Johnson, the architect responsible for many of Rockford's most iconic buildings, and the care and attention given to the design of this home is evident in its timeless styling throughout the sprawling 2500+ sqft of living space. The Ranch style layout provides stunning views of the Rock River with easy access to all areas of the home. The main bedroom "wing" of the home offers two massive bedrooms with an abundance of closet space, as well as a full bath. This attaches to your main living area with a very open layout between your living room and secondary dining. The family room features a wood burning fireplace and has direct access to your pool as well as the formal dining room. The elegant formal dining room flows directly into your kitchen which attaches to your mudroom/laundry, third bedroom, and the second full bath. The partial basement to the home provides a second kitchen, another wood burning fireplace, and access to the backyard via a lower level garage door. The exterior of the homes continues to provide beauty and style while offering multiple areas to gather and relax. Stately columns flank your long round about driveway, and on the front side of the home you will find a car port, 2 car garage, and a lengthy front porch. One the backside of the home you will find the screened in gazebo, in ground kidney shaped pool with at 9ft deep end, and entry to the backyard with access to the river. Recent updates include new flooring throughout the home, restoration of the kitchen cabinets, new counters, updated landscaping, restoration or replacement of plumbing fixtures, and a new liner was installed in the pool this summer. We will also include a brand new pool heater that will just need to be installed in the spring. If you fall in love with the house and the furnishings, there is a possibility all decor and furnishings can be included in the sale for additional cost.
