About This Home

As of October 2023

Beautifully maintained and updated 1920's farmette situated on 4 acres at the edge of McHenry and Bull Valley. Home features 5 bedrooms, 2.5 bath, an office and large centralized living room offering a open floorplan feel. The newly updated kitchen has high-end appliances, large island, granite countertops and custom cabinetry. Hardwood flooring throughout. Stone fireplace, a huge screen porch, circular drive, and a 2 car detached garage. Property has an 80 x 33 barn w/4+stalls, workshop and ginormous 2nd floor with a separate office area, 20 x 40 garden shed (a/k/a "she shed") that would even make Joanna Gaines swoon - complete with heat, electric, water and wi-fi, a chicken coop (currently being used as a playhouse), multiple patios, a small pond, riding arena (horses welcomed!), mature trees and a large garden area. Home and grounds have been very well maintained by its current owners. Recent updates include roof (house 2014, garden shed 2016 and barn 2022), windows, trim, plumbing, electrical as well as a newer tankless water heater (2018) and furnace (2019). Truly a unique property! Previous owners had success with producing a great haul of veggies yearly, hosted a barn wedding and many family parties. They also had future plans on making a vineyard. So much potential in this property to make it your own! Country living at it's best! Sellers have put over $400K into bringing this property back to life - make sure to see the Property Improvement list.
