14028 Nichols Rd , Hebron, IL 60034(McHenry County)

Opportunity of a lifetime. For the very first time, this historical property is on the market since it was purchased from the U.S. Government in 1843. 50+/- acres carved by the last glacial ice age that retreated 12,000 years ago. This incredibly unique property welcomes you in as you pass through the privately gated entrance. Making your way up the driveway, the hilltop home quickly grabs your attention. It features a finished walkout basement main entrance with a cozy family room, complete with a wood burning fireplace, an adjacent dining area and a full bathroom down the hall. The remaining space includes a large laundry room and storage room, which could be repurposed into an additional bedroom or other dedicated room of your liking. Upstairs, you'll find the main living space with a large, fully functional kitchen and dining area. Just off the kitchen is a welcoming dining room with warm oak wooden floors, an additional fireplace and a huge picture window with natural light streaming in. The main hallway leads to a large primary bedroom and a guest bedroom with a full bathroom adjacent. A third bedroom off the hall was transitioned into a cozy den, which could easily be converted back to its original use as a bedroom. An elevated wrap-around deck offers ample space to grill out with family or for hosting guests with big sky views. A notable feature connected to the deck is a beautiful cedar screened-in porch with vaulted ceiling and accent lighting. There's plenty of room for vehicle and equipment storage with a detached 24 X 40 garage, and a separate 40 X 80 metal pole barn with concrete floor. The remaining acreage consists of the ideal blend of wooded acreage, pasture, ponds and tillable land. The tillable acreage consists of roughly 20 acres of income-producing land. A true gem of this property is an oak tree savannah, comprised of approximately 18 acres. A meticulously mowed internal trail network exists throughout the property for ease of access and enjoyment. The grounds of this property leave you with a true sense of discovery and uniqueness around every turn. Gated entry, professionally designed gardens, creekside gazebo, oak savanna, bubbling stream, tranquil pond, and mature hardwoods await. Truly a niche, manageably sized property that cannot be replicated in this area. An owner-authored history booklet of the property is available upon request. A tour of the property is truly worth 1000 pictures. All this, just 5 miles south of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin! Contact Land Specialist Mark Leonard for more information or to schedule a private showing.
