Tranquil and secluded living right on the Illinois–Wisconsin border awaits on this beautiful 4.96-acre farmette, where pasture and woods open to sweeping valley views. UTV enthusiasts will feel right at home here, with plenty of room to explore and enjoy the outdoors. Take in the peaceful setting from the covered porch, wrap-around deck, tile block patio area, or simply wander the yard and woods and soak in the scenery. The updated bungalow-style home features hardwood and tile flooring throughout and an open, welcoming floor plan that blends the kitchen, dining, and living areas seamlessly. A walk-in pantry adds convenience, while the flexible layout allows for one or two main-level bedrooms—perfect for a bedroom, office, or exercise room, depending on your needs. Upstairs, you’ll find a spacious primary suite with laundry nearby, along with an additional bedroom or office. Outbuildings add tremendous value and versatility, including a 24 x 26 insulated detached garage, new sidewalks, an asphalt drive with turnaround, and an enclosed porch that offers extra storage and keeps the elements at bay. The property also includes a 12 x 24 storage shed currently used as a chicken coop and a 40 x 54 barn with a metal roof and nearby water hydrant. This setting is ideal for gatherings, gardening, hobby farming, or raising a few horses, cows, chickens, or other animals. It’s also a wonderful opportunity for those seeking a more self-sufficient, off-the-grid lifestyle. The work is done—now it’s time to relax and enjoy.
