About This Home

As of August 2025

Discover Your Countryside Sanctuary! A Luxurious Estate on 25 Serene Acres. Escape to unparalleled luxury and tranquility at this exquisite A-frame estate, perfectly situated on nearly 25 acres of picturesque Illinois countryside. This meticulously maintained property seamlessly blends rustic charm with modern elegance, offering an idyllic retreat. Step inside to discover a bright and airy open-concept main floor featuring vaulted ceilings and gleaming maple hardwood floors throughout. The two-story great room, anchored by a striking stone fireplace, flows effortlessly into a gourmet kitchen. Here, culinary dreams come alive with high-end Viking Professional appliances, sophisticated soapstone countertops, and a convenient breakfast bar. Adjacent to the kitchen, a versatile sitting area with heated floors and a full bathroom offers the potential for a convenient first-floor owner's suite. Double doors from this area open directly to a breathtaking outdoor oasis. Upstairs, two spacious bedroom suites each boast walk-in closets and private bathrooms, connected by a cozy loft area ideal for reading or relaxation. The finished basement expands your living space with a large recreation room, a versatile room (without egress) perfect for an office or potential guest bedroom with a full bath, and a dedicated laundry area. Recent essential updates include a new water softener, water heater, water filter, and pressure tank (2021). Surround sound in house. Gradient floor heating in a couple areas of the home and detached garage. The outdoor amenities are equally impressive, creating an entertainer's paradise. Enjoy a saltwater fiberglass in-ground pool, complete with a shelf and bubbler, speakers for music and surrounded by ample seating. A covered patio with a wood-burning fireplace and expansive additional patios (2022) provide perfect settings for al fresco gatherings. Relax in the newer hot tub with Wi-Fi app control (2022). The pool house offers convenient storage and a newly remodeled half bathroom (2025) with fresh paint, vanity, sink, and faucet. Stay connected with Starlink WiFi, extended to the pool house (2021). Beyond the main residence, the property offers exceptional utility. An attached one-car garage with epoxy flooring complements a detached, oversized two-car garage featuring heated space and potential for additional living quarters. A new septic line (2021) was run to the garage for future expansion, alongside an entirely new septic field for the property (2021), a $20,000 upgrade. Security is enhanced with five outdoor Blink cameras installed in 2025. Nature enthusiasts will appreciate the diverse landscape. Approximately 5 acres in front of the home were previously farmed, while the remaining acreage around and behind the home boasts mature trees and a half-mile cleared walking path. Newly planted black walnut trees attract local wildlife like deer and turkeys, and raised garden beds were added in 2023. Would make good hunting land with 3 hunting stands already in place. Additional premium features include Pella windows throughout, a whole-house generator, and negotiable furnishings and equipment. This unique property also offers a proven income stream, generating an average of $25,000 in Airbnb short-term rental income between May and October (since 2022). While windmills are not on the property, past monetary incentives have been paid to the property owner. This exceptional estate truly offers a unique blend of comfort, functionality, and natural beauty, making it an unparalleled countryside sanctuary.
