Known by some as the “Garwood House,” this unique property carries ties to past professors of Western Illinois University and offers timeless character with thoughtful updates. Inside, you’ll find architectural charm paired with fresh improvements throughout. The main floor features brand-new flooring and the entire interior has been freshly painted.
