Description
This is a rare opportunity to own a classic and beautiful piece of Jacksonville history! The location is 30 miles West of Springfield, IL and 90 miles North of St. Louis, MO. The previous Henry Pfeiffer Library is a very impressive and stately building with ornamental brick work, beautiful windows, and a unique clock tower. It has an elegant foyer entrance with a grand stairway to the second floor. The building would be perfect for a wedding venue, retail space, restaurant or even an impressive residence. With a little imagination, there is so very much potential with this gorgeous structure! There is a vacant lot directly in front of it for your guests to relax and enjoy the green space. There is a full basement for tons of storage. The second building included on this property was the former Julian Hall Science building. It consists of a 408 seat theater and lots of classrooms that could be used for many things, such as retail shops, class rooms, or most anything else. There are 4 separate parcels on this property, so it could be separated out and the buildings can be sold separately if desired.
