Discover this turnkey country retreat and established agritourism business located on the edge of beautiful Elizabeth, Illinois! A stunning 34 acre +/- estate that blends renovated facilities with rustic charm, guest accommodations with primary residential space, and a diverse terrain and infrastructure sure to suit a variety of uses both commercially and for private use. A winding blacktop lane passes by a nearly two acre stocked pond on the way up to the picturesque farmstead with a stately six bedroom farmhouse, an incredible century old renovated barn, five guest cabins and additional outbuildings and farm infrastructure. Positioned on the high point of the property, the farmhouse overlooks a majority of the property and the panoramic views beyond and features a spacious and open flow main floor, main floor master and laundry, three full bathrooms, and a FULL commercial kitchen more than capable to prepare meals for a large number of guests. The barn has been completely renovated with modern amenities including multiple bathrooms and shower stalls with on demand hot water; yet maintains its rustic charm with vaulted wood clad ceilings, exposed beams, wood floors, and warm lighting. Five guest cabins, each with heating and cooling, can host up to 8-12 camp kids per cabin or can easily be arranged for a more private Farm Stay weekend booking. Other outbuildings and infrastructure include a 90 X 46 heated pole shed, a hay barn, landscape shed, two chicken coops, wood-fired pizza oven patio area, campfire ring, and 1 mile of paved perimeter paths. The acreage is diverse and of rolling contour with multiple pastures and fencing set up for rotational grazing, vast lawn, garden and orchard areas, wooded areas, and nearly 6.5 tillable acres used for hay production. The pond is stocked with Largemouth Bass, Catfish and Bluegill and is accessible around the entire perimeter as well as from a beach area and dock area. The founding owners retirement presents a unique opportunity to take over this thriving Farm Camp and Farm Stay business with all existing licenses in place and a loyal, repeat client base. With favorable and flexible zoning from the Village of Elizabeth, a new owner can build on the existing business foundation, use the property for their own personal country retreat or hobby farm, or put their own entrepreneurial dreams to reality and grow their own agritourism, venue and event, niche hospitality, or other business in a popular destination area near historic Downtown Galena and just a few hours from Chicago. There are not enough words to truly describe all of the features and potential this 34 acre destination retreat has to offer so schedule your own private viewing to see firsthand!
