A rare opportunity to own your own slice of Jo Daviess County. Located in the rolling hills less than two miles from Massbach Ridge Winery, this spacious ranch home built in 1998, sits on almost 40 acres with a 3-stall horse barn, 20X40 Cleary building, and a Generac whole house generator. You can feel the peace as you pull into the long driveway off the paved road to this beautifully landscaped and impeccably maintained home. The main level could be all you ever need! The living room features a wood-burning fireplace and built-in cabinets with vaulted ceilings open to a well appointed kitchen with oversize stainless steel fridge, double oven, walk-in pantry and island with seating and an additional sink. Wide plank oak floors throughout most of the main level and freshly painted white trim and baseboards throughout the entire house. A screened in porch off the living room connects to a spacious deck and fenced in portion of the lawn. Tray ceilings, new carpet, and abundant light make the master bedroom a true sanctuary with multiple closets and a master bathroom equipped with jetted tub, double sinks, and shower. Still on the main floor is a powder room and functional office with sprawling counter space creating two desks, both with windows to enjoy the peaceful views while you work from home. Main level laundry room connects to the two-car attached garage as well as another mudroom/utility room. Heading down to the full, finished basement you will find two more bedrooms, two full bathrooms, abundant storage, and an exercise/rec room with a central family room featuring a gas-log fireplace, wet-bar and pool table to stay. And don't forget about the 39.09 acres, a large portion of which is income-producing tillable cropland balanced with timber, making the residential portion easy to maintain. The 3-stall horse barn has much potential with a tack room that includes a sink and wood burning fireplace. The 20x40 Cleary building has a workshop portion with a built-in workbench for all the tinkering you can handle! See attached document for a complete list of updates, but some include new furnace, new water softener, interior paint, brush removal/landscaping and ground tiling for downspouts in 2020. BRAND NEW septic system, new washer/dryer in 2019. If you are looking for your Jo Daviess County retreat, you must schedule a personal showing to see all that this property has to offer before it's too late!
