Property Description

Seriously - why is this gem of a house still on the market? Perched atop one of the scenic hills of East Dubuque in a neighborhood that reminds one of a Norman Rockwell painting, 361 Clinton Avenue is a ranch home filled with character, history, and opportunity. Yes, it is reminiscent of a tiny tea cup house, with three small bedrooms, a regular sized dining room and a cozy living room. It also has a one-car garage - and no, a big truck won't fit. Maybe a SAAB. Or a VW. The kitchen, however, is a no-stair entry with a full-sized farmhouse footprint with a back-door access to the back yard. Which is more than large enough on which one could build a righteous 2 car plus garage. Just moments away from the Julian Dubuque bridge that takes you to Dubuque, this charming petite 3-bedroom, 1-bath residence sitting on a spacious .31 acre lot has been lovingly cared for by one owner for nearly 60 years—a true testament to its warmth and livability. Inside, you’ll find beautifully refinished, gleaming wood floors that bring brightness and timeless appeal to the space. While the home is fully functional and move-in ready, the seller continues to improve the property and invites the next owner to add their own vision and updates to bring it to modern standards. For instance: The week of July 20th, the seller had the basement concrete walls and floor fully sealed for waterproofing. And sanded and re-finished the original 1900's-ish wood floors. The large front porch is now gleaming white with new paint and the yard is well-maintained, just waiting for its new owners to begin their own landscaping. So take another look at this charming home. Because there aren't too many on the market now in East Dubuque. A rare opportunity to own a well-loved home with great bones, classic charm, and room to make it your own—all in a convenient and picturesque location. Make it yours!
