This 2.17-acre property in Winnebago County outside of Cherry Valley offers wide open country views in every direction with a peaceful setting surrounded by timber and agricultural fields. As you pull up to the home, the large front deck sets the tone and gives you a great place to relax, sit outside, grill, or simply enjoy the views and open space that comes with living in the country. When you step inside, you enter through a mudroom area that works well for boots, jackets, and everyday in-and-out living. The eat-in kitchen features stainless steel appliances, plenty of cabinet space, and a cozy breakfast area that feels warm and comfortable. From there, you move into a larger family room and dining space that works great for gatherings, or the layout could easily transition into one oversized family room if desired, and this room offers direct access out to the deck as well. The main floor includes one bedroom, a large full bathroom with a walk-in shower, and a separate laundry room, which keeps day-to-day living convenient. Upstairs, you will find the large master bedroom that also has a separate space being used as a walk-in closet, but could be reworked to create an additional bedroom if needed. The basement is unfinished but clean and works well for storage or future expansion. Outside the property includes a two-car detached garage, an additional outbuilding, and a chicken coop for those who enjoy the homestead lifestyle. Even with the quiet setting, you are still close to Rockford, multiple forest preserves, and there are nearby access points to the Kishwaukee River offering excellent recreational opportunities. This property gives you that country feel, room to breathe, and the ability to enjoy a little land without being too far from town.
