Description

At the end of a private drive on the edge of town, you’ll find this newer raised ranch home with plenty of views sitting on a large acreage! Offering panoramic views of the Illinois River, you’ll never get tired of looking out your windows. Walking up the new deck entry and entering the upstairs foyer of this home you’ll find an open floorplan that leads you straight from the living room into the eat-in kitchen. Off of the kitchen, you’ll find a full bathroom and bedroom. On the opposite side of the kitchen, you’ll find your way out onto a newly updated deck that offers plenty of room to relax and watch numerous things including wildlife, waterfowl, boats, and traffic below. The view off this deck is fantastic! The downstairs of the home consists of 2 rooms currently being used as non-conforming bedrooms, an additional full bathroom, furnace area, on-demand water heater, washer and dryer, with the remaining of the basement being open. The home is served by village water and sewer and has high-speed internet and phone options as well. As you walk outside of the home to the detached 2.5 car garage, you’ll also pass by the 24’ swimming pool. Adjacent to the home, there is a 1500 sq ft shop building with full concrete and overhead doors, a gazebo, an older 700 sq ft yurt that has its own well and septic, and a pond stocked with bass, bluegill, crappie, and catfish. The remainder of the property is made up of large timber, grasses, and old farmland that could be put back into tillable production or used as large food plot locations. The property houses a lot of wildlife and hunters have been very successful to harvest quality whitetails and wild turkeys for a number of years. Small game and morel mushroom hunting is good as well! There is a cell phone tower lease on the southwest corner of the property that generates over $12,600 a year in income. That lease has a solid increase every 5 years and currently runs through 2033. Call today for more information or to schedule your private showing before it’s too late!
