6914 N UPPER SKYLINE Drive

Once in a great while a property comes along that requires time to process how fascinating it truly is. There is no way to properly illustrate the remarkable space of this architecturally crafted cabin. With over 2,700 sq ft of living space & sitting on 1.5 acres this wooded retreat offers beautiful views of the Illinois river & rolling bluffs below. This Bill Rutherford original was reconstructed in 2001 by Custom Builders Don Hoerr and Sons. The material used to build this home was hand chosen from across the US...47 tons of Limestone delivered from a family quarry in Northeastern Iowa, Timbers shipped from a barn in Geneseo IL, Oak flooring from a cotton gin down south, front door made using sweet gum from the loading dock of Galesburg's train station, walls from an old pickle factory in Michigan, driveway constructed of over 2,000 pavers from the streets of Peoria & 40 tons of weathered limestone from quarries in AR & MO. This list is only a fraction of the items used - a must see!
