About This Home

Located in Ogle County in the small community of Holcomb, this 2-story home offers an affordable opportunity under $200,000 with 1,400 square feet of living space, 3 bedrooms, and 1.1 bathrooms, including a convenient second-floor laundry area converted from one of the original bedrooms. Built in 1849, the home blends historic character with modern updates, featuring 9-foot ceilings, an original stained wood staircase, and painted trim with a distinctive distressed finish that highlights its vintage appeal. The traditional layout provides defined living spaces, and the updated kitchen (2020) offers practical functionality for everyday use. Major mechanical improvements include a new furnace and central air in 2024, updated plumbing throughout in 2021, 200-amp electrical service with new panel (2021), water heater (2020), and vinyl windows installed in 2022. The half bath was remodeled in 2025, and laminate plank flooring runs through much of the home. The partial unfinished basement with crawl space provides storage. Situated on a .281-acre corner lot with natural gas service, private well and septic, gravel driveway, large mature trees, the property faces open farm fields, offering rural views and privacy while remaining accessible. Conveniently located approximately 9 miles from Rochelle, 7 miles to I-39, and under 30 minutes to Rockford shopping and amenities, this Northern Illinois property offers small-town living with quick access to major routes, making it a strong option for buyers seeking space outside larger city centers.
