About this home

5 ACRE FARMETTE: RENOVATED HOUSE, OUTBUILDINGS on a CREEK, ZONED A1 * The one-story home has been renovated top to bottom within the past six years and offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, an attached 2-car garage and a full unfinished basement. It still showcases its original personality with leaded-glass built-ins, a coffered ceiling, hardwood floors and trim. The REMODELED KITCHEN brings in modern comforts with new cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and quartz countertops. A large walk-up attic could be finished into an additional 550 sq ft of living space; consider a future primary suite with a private bath or Family Room. Outside, the land includes several usable farm structures. The 32x62 CINDERBLOCK BUILDING stands solid with a steel roof, gravel floor, electric service and plenty of potential. The CORN CRIB is ideal for RV or equipment storage, or you could open the sides and convert it into a rustic party barn / outdoor entertainment area. A little paint on both of these buildings would go a long way! The 26x44 OLD BARN is straight and restorable; remove the lean-tos and reuse the wood for repairs, or envision it as a dedicated space for horses, goats or other livestock. If you'd rather start fresh, the barnwood itself carries value. The acreage is framed by mature trees and sits in a true farming community. You'll have a Newark address but access to Yorkville schools, and the property sits closer to the Village of Plattville. Conveniently located near Routes 47 and 52, it offers easy travel to Yorkville, Shorewood or Morris. . It's well-suited for anyone dreaming of space for livestock, hobby farming, equipment storage, or simply the quiet of country living. ** ANY REMAINING PERSONAL PROPERTY is FOR SALE SEPARATELY.**
