Beautiful, historic home for sale in Keosauqua, the county seat in the Villages of Van Buren County in SE Iowa. This original brick home was completed in 1856 by Judge Wright who came to Keosauqua from Indiana. He was not only a Judge but became an Iowa State Senator. In 1865 he co-founded the Iow...a Law School. This home was built with the front facing due south, back north. For many years students would come with their compasses to see it is the only house in town that sits accurately true north, south, east and west. Original wood floors, woodwork and built-ins throughout. Newer windows and electrical updates have been added in recent years. There are 2 fireplaces that have been capped but could be reopened if desired. The 2400 sq. ft. home was tuckpointed and painted in 2024. Rumor has it that it was part of the underground railroad. You can enjoy the wooded 1-acre lot with many different kinds of birds to entertain you all year long. A covered porch in the back and a 2-car detached garage make this property complete.
