1779 S Wake Rd, New Berlin, IL 62670
About this home
Looking for 1.25 acres in the country? Plus, it has a log cabin right in the middle of it, which is in need of great repairs. Take down the current house and build your dream home or come in and completely redo this home. Unfortunately, this property will not qualify for standard financing- only construction loans, rehab loans, OR CASH -yes, sellers will take cash! From top to bottom, it needs everything. Water is currently in the walkout basement along with mold, so it is not accessible to view. Yes, you're correct, it is like having a built in pool that opens to a pond (that should not be there). A large amount of junk is still at the back of this house and throughout the acreage, along with overgrown weeds and trees. If you love yard work, this listing is your dream come true. You will always have a project with this property! The front is pretty muddy when pulling up, so be careful not to get stuck.
