Description

CONTRACT VERBALLY ACCEPTED. WAITING ON PAPERWORK. NO MORE SHOWINGS PER SELLER INSTRUCTION. Built in 1984 by its original owner, this true farmhouse offers a rare combination of country living, exceptional utility, and future investment potential. Situated on a highly visible 3.26-acre corner parcel, the property includes a substantial 142' x 60' outbuilding and is ideally located near residential developments, schools, and the amenities of both DeKalb and Sycamore. A charming walkway crafted from original DeKalb bricks leads to the expansive front porch, the perfect place to relax and enjoy beautiful sunset views. Step inside to a welcoming foyer with hardwood flooring that sets the tone for this warm and inviting home. The spacious family room features a wood-burning fireplace and picturesque views of the surrounding countryside, while the adjoining formal dining room provides an ideal setting for holiday gatherings and special occasions. The fully applianced country kitchen offers abundant workspace for cooking and baking, along with a breakfast bar, generous dining area, and convenient access to the back deck for outdoor meals and entertaining. A walk-in pantry provides excellent storage. Just off the attached garage, the practical mudroom includes a utility sink, backyard access, and a full bath. A main-floor office offers flexibility and could easily be converted into a first-floor bedroom if desired. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, all enjoying scenic country views. The spacious primary suite features a private bath and laundry chute, while a large hall bath and ample closet space throughout the home add to its functionality. The fully finished basement expands the living space with a large family room featuring a wood-burning stove, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. A versatile bonus room with a closet could serve as a home office, playroom, den, or hobby space. The utility/storage room houses the home's mechanicals, laundry area, and provides direct access to the garage. The impressive outbuilding offers endless possibilities. The north section measures approximately 102' x 60' and features concrete flooring with a grain liner, making it ideal for agricultural use and storage of corn, beans, or other commodities. The remaining 49' x 60' section has gravel flooring and provides excellent space for vehicles, equipment, boats, or additional storage. The property is equipped with 800-amp service and 3-phase electrical power. Water hookup infrastructure to city services is already in place, requiring only connection. Whether you're seeking a country property with room to grow, a working farm operation, a potential business location, or an investment opportunity with future development possibilities, this one-of-a-kind property offers exceptional value and versatility for years to come.
