40 Acres of Country Living at Its Finest~~~If you've been dreaming of a property where you can create your own barns, stables, and outbuildings-without inheriting someone else's worn-down structures-this is it. Set on 40 acres of farmland, woods, and creek, this 4,500 sq ft custom-built farmhouse combines modern comfort with endless possibilities. A long private blacktop driveway leads to the oversized 3-car garage (900 sq ft) with extra-tall ceilings, perfect for working on vehicles or storing equipment. The recently painted exterior (2025) and brand-new roof (2021) offer timeless farmhouse charm with lasting durability, while the land itself is a true highlight: approximately 24 acres of tillable fields, a wooded section with mature trees, and a scenic stretch of Indian Creek winding diagonally across the property. The wide front porch-complete with a porch swing-sets the tone for relaxing farmhouse moments. Inside, soaring 10-foot ceilings and refinished hardwood floors welcome you in. The spacious kitchen is equipped with a Viking 6-burner stove, stainless steel range hood, double oven, and custom hickory cabinets, making it a chef's delight. At the rear of the home, the vaulted great room with exposed beams overlooks the private backyard-an ideal spot to watch deer, turkeys, and even bald eagles. The thoughtful floor plan includes a main-level master suite, home office, and laundry, plus radiant floor tubing installed in the garage and basement for future comfort. Upstairs, you'll find four bedrooms, two full baths, and a huge bonus room-perfect for a hobby space, game room, or studio. The unfinished basement, already roughed in for a full bath, offers even more potential to expand. New carpet in all bedrooms (2024) ensures a move-in-ready feel. Here, you'll enjoy the best of both worlds: quiet country living with privacy and space, yet still just a short drive to Chicago Road, the western suburbs, and Shabbona Lake State Park with its fishing, hunting, trails, and nearby golf course. Best of all, it's not in a subdivision-just wide-open skies, a slower pace, and the warmth of a small, family-friendly community. Students here attend Indian Creek Schools. Whether your dream is farming, hunting, fishing, or simply enjoying clean country living, this property offers unmatched potential.
