"Stay Home" here next time. Build a cabin, add a generator, stock the freezer and pantry and ride out the next one on this rare homestead. Opportunity to own your own "Forest Preserve" as the current owner describes her private estate. Properties like these do not come on the market often as they tend to stay in families for generations. As you enter the 40 acre estate you will follow the winding driveway past mature trees, manicured ATV, hiking or horse trails, a spacious pole barn and 3/4 acre stocked fishing and swimming pond with aeration to finally arrive at your well planned and designed ADA compatible ranch perfectly situated on the property, as it should be, to take in the breathtaking views of wildlife enjoying the pond and woods that make this a dream opportunity for the next owner. As you pull up next to your home, you will be welcomed by a brick pathway to the front entrance, that is wonderfully landscaped to enjoy the four seasons. Enter the home to explore your light and bright, sun filled happy home perfectly designed with one level living in mind. The living room that greets you overlooks the pond and is warmed by a charming wood burning stove situated to where the dining and kitchen area may also enjoy it's warmth. Plenty of space will be found here with the 3 bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths on the main level. As you venture to the semi-finished lower level you will find a large gathering space, hobby area and 3rd full bathroom, all tastefully done and with plenty of additional storage in the utility room. Surrounding the roughly four acre lot that the home and 24x48 pole barn sits on is another roughly sixteen acres of woodland and twenty acres of prairie land. A private sanctuary like this is meant to be enjoyed with others. Invite your family, friends and business associates out to ride your horses, fish, swim or ice skate on your shared pond, ride your ATV's on the trails, cross country ski or snowmobile. Maybe just relax by the pond and count the stars at night as there are no distracting lights to keep the stars from shining bright. Deer and turkey are common sights to enjoy from both inside and out. Plenty of space to do just about anything you've ever dreamed about doing on your property including camping, raising livestock, gardening, creating a gentleman/hobby farm, working on your fleet of cars or having a place to store your collection of antiques. Don't miss your chance here and, if you need more buildings, there is plenty of room to grow your estate as you make lasting memories and prepare to create your own legacy to leave to your generations. Some properties you just have to see to believe. And this is one of those properties! Taxes reflect additional woods and prairie exemptions. Two 20 acre parcels equal the total 40 acres.
