About This Home
As of August 2025Wow! If you've been searching for serious space, look no further. With over 3,900 sq ft above grade, this is a rare find. Set on over 8 acres across 3 parcels, this country retreat offers sweeping panoramic views from nearly every window-framing the countryside like a living work of art. This property, located in Joy, IL only 7 miles West of Aledo, even has the nostalgic old red barn. Step into a welcoming 4-season room that sets the tone for the rest of the home-bright, open, and full of possibility. From there, flow into the elegant formal dining room, where the charm of the original farmhouse woodwork has been lovingly preserved. To the left, a generous living room awaits; to the right, a spacious sunlit kitchen equipped for both daily living and entertaining-complete with a center island, double oven, brand-new cooktop, and a stylish stainless steel hood. The main level is designed for convenience, featuring a full bath combined with laundry, two comfortable bedrooms joined by a Jack & Jill bathroom, and a dedicated home office with built-in cabinetry and a picture-perfect view of the surrounding fields-a dream space for remote work or quiet study. Upstairs is where this home really opens up. The massive primary bedroom is a true retreat, with soaring cathedral ceilings, a walk-in closet, and a private half bath. And in the heart of the upper level, wide-open rooms invite endless possibilities-family room, creative studio, play space, you name it.
