About this home
Welcome to this charming, 1870 historic farmhouse sitting on 13 acres with Robert Todd Lincoln connections sandwiched just minutes between Lake Charleston and Fox Ridge State Park. Set in a peaceful country setting, this home offers quiet rural living without sacrificing convenience, just 6 miles south of Charleston, IL (home of Eastern Illinois University). It’s the prefect mix of privacy, accessibility and true country charm with two Lincoln lilacs from the Lincoln Log Cabin lilac. The heart of the home is its stunning nearly 256 sq ft covered front porch with wet rated ceiling fans and is great for sipping coffee at sunrise or winding down at sunset watching the resident deer herd, this porch makes every moment feel like a retreat. Inside, historic character shines through with a large brick fireplace with built-in fans and Amish handcrafted kitchen cabinets. The homes layout flows effortlessly, ideal for hosting holiday parties, and large gatherings of friends and family. The main level features a foyer, master bedroom, living room, dining room, office, large bathroom, kitchen, breakfast room, utility pantry, spacious laundry/storage/work room with root cellar and wood room. Upstairs features two additional large bedrooms. The property also features a large detached 28' X 36', 3-bay garage with workspace and attic and a 4-bay driveway. Outside, the expansive yard and serene woods have been perfect for gathering the family: football, volleyball, and hiking fun all at the same time, and evening cookouts gathered around the fire pit for marshmallow roasting. Don’t forget all of the wildlife whether you are an admirer, or a deer hunter the land and ravines are calling your name. Want to build an additional structure, there is plenty of options to do that too. The property has multiple water sources but the rural water is for drinking, 1,200 gallon cistern, well water with hand pump, creeks, an aquifer and spring. The longtime homeowners have cherished the land itself - gardening, bee-keeping, raising chickens and the comfort of the old root cellar, where generations before them also found safety during storms. They loved caring for this home, knowing they weren’t first to live here and surely won’t be the last. The home’s placement on the property was thoughtfully chosen long ago, allowing perfect sunrises and sunsets to fill the home with natural light. This is more than a house, it’s a place where memories are made, gatherings grow, and the rhythm of country life meets modern convenience. A truly special historic farmhouse ready to welcome its next chapter. Major improvements include (2022) The water heater, A/C outdoor unit and coils.
