12877 Whipple Rd, Sycamore, IL 60178
About this home
Picturesque 8 acres in unincorporated Sycamore less than 5 minutes from town. This unique property is a rare find in Sycamore School District. Half of the lot has beautiful mature Oak trees and has meticulously maintained lawn, and the other half has old growth mature forest with a creek curving through it. There is a small 1 bed 1 bath ranch home on the property as well. This is a rare opportunity to place your dream home under the shade of already mature trees and have plenty of room on your property to enjoy it's natural setting. Or maybe you don't want a big house and you want that custom outbuilding you have been daydreaming about? County Zoning allows for outbuildings and the existing home would allow for immediate construction after closing. Ask your agent for more information on exact rules and regulations.

- Very small cottage type home with very tiny bedroom. Needs work. Could possibly expand garage into living space to add to home and live there while you build your main home on the large parcel. Value is definitely all in the 8 acres.3 years ago• May not reflect the current state of the homeRedfin Partner agent
