Property Description
It's time to come home and build a life you'll never want to leave. This beautiful, mature wooded 2.5-ACRE parcel, this renovated 4BR, 3BA farmette offers the perfect blend of country charm and modern convenience. Homesteading is more than a trend-it's a lifestyle. This property is a rare opportunity to enjoy the space, setup, and freedom to live more SUSTAINABLY every day. With A1 ZONING and no HOA, this property welcomes HORSES, GOATS, and CHICKENS, making it ideal for hobby farming or a peaceful rural retreat. Over 100K IN FARM IMPROVEMENTS have been made, including a 3-STALL GOAT BARN attached to a partitioned barn with natural light, plus two spacious CHICKEN COOPS WITH RUNS. Two lean-to shelters provide weather protection for animals, including one in the horse paddock. The newer barn roof, livestock/electric fencing (2020), and solar lighting (2024) add to the property's functionality and SUSTAINABILITY. A 1,200 SQFT FULLY FENCED GARDEN with 22 raised beds has been cultivated using all-natural methods with absolutely no chemicals, ensuring a commitment to environmental conservation. The exterior layout is thoughtfully designed for animal rotation and ease of care, featuring approximately 0.5 acres of split pasture-one green paddock with truck and tractor access, and one dry paddock with gated access to the alpaca barn and an additional paddock. The current setup comfortably supports a diverse farm family, including 2 full-size horses, 2 minis, 5 alpacas, 6 goats, 40 chickens, and 1 turkey-animals not included. The home was extensively updated in 2018--refinished HARDWOOD FLOORING, newer carpet, windows, bathrooms, radon mitigation system and roof. The KITCHEN was fully remodeled with GRANITE countertops, STAINLESS appliances, and updated cabinetry. A spacious DECK overlooks the peaceful surroundings--the perfect space for relaxation or entertaining. Inside, a FIREPLACE and WOOD-BURNING STOVE create a cozy atmosphere. The OVERSIZED, HEATED 3-CAR GARAGE provides ample storage and workspace, while the partially FINISHED BASEMENT offers additional living space, perfect for a recreation room, home office, or extra storage. The property is in the process of being upgraded to NICOR GAS for enhanced efficiency. Conveniently located just 10 minutes from historic WOODSTOCK SQUARE and 25 minutes from LAKE GENEVA, this FARMETTE provides the privacy of UNINCORPORATED/Lower tax living with easy access to shopping, dining, and recreation. Yes! Good internet. This is more than just a property-it's a place to live the life you've always dreamed of, surrounded by nature, animals, and the freedom to grow your own way.
