About This Home
6 ACRE PRIVATE HORSE PROPERTY; HOUSE, 2 BARNS, INDOOR & OUTDOOR ARENAS and WORKSHOP on NATURAL GAS! Welcome to a picturesque country setting where a long private drive with grass pastures on either side, guides you home. This updated farmhouse (inside and out) blends modern comfort with that classic rural charm buyers search for. Inside, you'll find fresh grey paint, crisp white trim, and grey-toned waterproof plank barnwood flooring that gives the home an easy, relaxed feel. With 2,780 square feet, 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, the layout works well whether you're running a small hobby farm, managing horses, or simply craving wide-open space. The first-floor primary suite, updated bathrooms, and main-level laundry make daily living simple. The large living room is warm and inviting with its stone fireplace (gas start/wood-burning), big picture windows, and plenty of room for lounging, game nights, or meals with friends. The kitchen has been renovated with white cabinets, stainless appliances (brand new oven!), granite counters, and both counter seating and table space. A family room and mudroom sit on the east side of the home. Upstairs, three freshly painted bedrooms with new carpet share a convenient half bath. The dry basement adds dependable storage space. Outside, enjoy the covered front porch, a large open back deck for entertaining (hot tub included) and a circular gravel drive. The property is well-set for HORSES, LIVESOCK or HOBBY FARMING. A 10x12 red-and-white garden shed with loft provides extra storage. The former CORN CRIB has been resided with steel siding and transformed into a HORSE BARN featuring four stalls, a full staircase to a hay loft (holds 500+ bales), plus a chicken coop with indoor and outdoor access that could be converted to a tack room. Two electric RV hookups add flexibility for visitors or traveling equestrians. The 60x70 indoor arena offers sand footing, kickboards, lighting, and doors on two sides-easy access for hay wagons, tractors, or equipment. Off the back are two lean-tos; one with three additional stalls that open to a dry lot and the other is a workshop with a concrete floor and overhead door connects. Outside, the 90x105 outdoor arena has sand footing and five-strand high-tension flexible fencing with wood posts, ready for training, riding, or turnout. Two large front pastures sit along the drive, and an old run-in shed has been enclosed and floored for extra storage but could be converted back if needed. A stand of mature pine trees offers a secluded spot for multiple occasions. You're just 6-8 miles from Somonauk, Hinckley and Sandwich and Shabbona Lake State Park nearby for year-round outdoor fun. This is a rare opportunity to own a turnkey farmhouse with equestrian-friendly facilities in a beautiful, private rural setting. This is the kind of rural lifestyle property that's hard to find and easy to fall in love with.
