Attn Horseman, Hunter , Artist, Nature Enthusiast , Investor and beyond. RARE opportunity to own 40 fenced wildlife filled acres of one of the prettiest and highest points in rolling north-central IL. This property has been the backdrop to award-winning photography, professional music videos, record - trophy bucks and SO much more. Abundant wildlife, spring-fed ponds, creek, hills/valleys, eagles, cranes, ducks , woods, agriculture, sunrises, sunsets and views for over 10 miles In addition to the breathtaking views , there is the main home plus a separate guest quarters and several impeccable pole barns including a large equestrian barn w/ indoor. The main residence is completely remodeled hilltop home that has huge bedrooms, custom milled woodwork , stone fireplace , vaulted ceiling ,and large windows allowing you to see the properties views from all rooms, the guest quarters is a 700 sqr ft 2 story converted barn ( affectionately known as the " Bunkhouse" ) . It is perfect for extended family , the guest quarters, and more . With its hayloft bedroom, full kitchen , horse trough bathtub and original barn board accents, it steals the hearts of all who see it. The property has a quaint, traditional red/white dairy barn with hand-hewn beams & peg architecture, dutch doors, and drive in hayloft that was completely rehabbed within the last 2 years ( new roof, loft floor, painted etc ). Door clearance is no issue with any of the pole barns as they have 18' x 16 ' insulated overhead and sliding doors and 16' rafters making them dump truck / semi , RV , farm equipment friendly and can serve all needs and any purpose. Then equestrian facility is a heated 72' wide x 220' long barn . It has 22 / 12' X 12' box stalls ( all w/ rubber matts and seperate electric , lights ) , a well lit 60' x 120' indoor arena, 12' concrete aisleways, spacious grooming area , heated tack / viewing areas, full bath w/ shower, 12 x 12 hot & cold water washrack with floor drain and mats and 12 ' x 24' office . The barn has timers for individual stall lights perfect for mare cycling, shedding etc. There is over 7000 sqr ft of concrete in this barn and there is in-floor heat ( the building has a mechanical room w/ boiler and heat on-demand water heater ) . ***This building was built to be used for horses and has been an international horse breeding / training facility for 20 years . When built , use beyond horses was considered however and the building is constructed so it can easily convert to storage or truly anything a buyer could need . There is a 100' x 200' sand based outdoor riding arena. There is a nice , recently roofed and painted wooden building with concrete floor, heat, sink , counter top and hydrant currently used as a welding shop but it too has no limitations. The 40 acres is fully fenced, cross fenced and gated. 18 rolling pastures. Nelson auto water. Approx 1/2 the property is tillable ( currently hay ground / pasture ) the balance is a combination pastures , wooded, creek and springs. I have included 74 pictures for you to view as NO amount of words can describe this one of a kind property. This one in a lifetime property is in pristine condition with every inch of it having been meticulously maintained. If you are looking to start or own a turn-key horse facility, BNB , vacation rental , world-class hunting retreat , vineyard, hemp farm , vet hospital , auto shop, dog or horse boarding , boat/ car /RV storage ( we are close to a vacation home / gated community and storage is a big business out here ) , or truly anything one can imagine this property is perfect.
