Description

Step into timeless character and modern comfort, in this beautifully updated turn-of-the-century property. This 5 bedroom, 3 1/2 bath home is situated on a stunning nearly 1 acre wooded lot at the edge of town. Rich original woodwork, classic architectural details and period charm have been thoughtfully preserved while tasteful updates provide the conveniences today's buyers desire. Spacious living areas, generous bedrooms, and updated baths blend historic character with everyday functionality. Surrounded by mature trees and natural beauty, the property offers a peaceful setting with easy distance to Shabbona Lake State Park and the Indian Oaks golf course. Just perfect for outdoor enthusiasts and those seeking a private retreat with small town amenities. The best of both worlds! With 5 bedrooms, you can imagine this home would be perfect for large families or related living. In fact, there is a laundry room and kitchen area on each of the first and second levels. The fifth bedroom is being used as a main floor master and there is a second master bedroom on the 2nd floor as well. The third floor attic has so much potential and would be an ideal kids play room or rec room. The mechanicals have been upgraded over the years as have the electric and drywall. The house and garage roofs were a complete tear off 6-7 years ago. The outdoor area is simply a peaceful haven including kids playhouse and convenient underground dog fence. 2 separate decks are accessible from the second floor to enjoy that morning cup of coffee. Come see this one of a kind home today! Hard to find a nearly one acre wooded property so close to town. Home sold "As Is".
