Rare find in 61107! This 2.5-acre AG-zoned building site offers the space, privacy and peaceful setting that is hard to find so close to Rockford amenities. Tucked behind the road frontage, the property opens to a beautiful expanse of green space framed by mature trees, with lovely eastern and western views—perfect for enjoying colorful sunrises and spectacular evening sunsets. Zoned AG offers flexibility for a variety of uses, including a possible barndominium and animals/horses (buyer to verify permitted uses). A quiet setting with larger homes and parcels, yet conveniently located near I-90/20/39, Hard Rock Casino, State Street, Riverside, Costco and Javon Bea Hospital. No well or septic currently; utilities are nearby. Winnebago County taxes. Seller prefers to sell on contract. See plat and aerial for access and configuration.
