Nestled at the end of a paved dead-end road, this stunning property offers peace, privacy, and a beautiful setting surrounded by rolling hills, lush timber, and sprawling farmland. Perched atop the hill, the home captures incredible views in every direction, making it perfect to catch both sunrises and sunsets. Stepping inside you’re greeted with an open, inviting floor plan—designed for both comfort and functionality. The oversized kitchen has plenty of counter space, modern appliances, and a layout that seamlessly flows into the formal dining room and cozy family room—ideal for entertaining family and friends. The master bedroom is generously sized, complete with a large master bathroom, two walk-in closets, and a jacuzzi tub, making it a peaceful retreat to start and end your day. The second bedroom offers privacy and access to a well-appointed bathroom, perfect for guests or family members. Just off the kitchen, a spacious concrete patio awaits—perfect for enjoying the evening sunset while soaking in the natural beauty that surrounds you. The walk-out lower level offers endless potential, with high ceilings and an abundance of natural light. This space could easily be transformed into an in-law suite, or perhaps a recreation area for family gatherings. With a bonus room, living area, and plumbing already in place for a kitchenette and additional bathroom, the possibilities are endless. The garage is deep, offering not just parking for vehicles, but ample space for a workshop or storage, with heated floors to keep things comfortable year-round. The property also features a 30x36 shop with its own well and septic. The shop has electric, water, bathroom, and heat with a wood stove or electric baseboard, making this space perfect for projects or additional storage. There is also a spacious barn, ideal for equipment or livestock. The land is full of character, with fenced areas that were once used for horses, now offering the opportunity to be revitalized or transformed into the perfect hunting or recreational grounds. And with quick access to I-88, you're just a short drive from the Quad Cities to the west and beyond to the east, making this property as convenient as it is private. This property offers more than just land—it offers a lifestyle. A place where you can build your dreams, enjoy the outdoors, and experience life on your terms.
