The seller has recently invested in demolishing three deteriorated structures, reducing cleanup and removal work for the next owner. An additional 1,700+ sq. ft. pole barn with high ceilings offers room for RVs, boats,...Bring your vision to this unique 2.84-acre property with space, privacy, and potential. Once part of the original Avery settlement, the 3-bed/1-bath home is accompanied by several outbuildings, including a 3,200+ sq. ft. century-old barn waiting to be restored to its original glory. The seller has recently invested in demolishing three deteriorated structures, reducing cleanup and removal work for the next owner. An additional 1,700+ sq. ft. pole barn with high ceilings offers room for RVs, boats, equipment, or a future workshop. The charming grain bin could be repurposed into a covered outdoor entertaining area. Mature trees and a peaceful rural setting surround the property, while its location just off US-12 provides convenient access to Chicago in under 1.5 hours. This rehabilitation project is ideal for an experienced buyer ready to restore and reimagine a one-of-a-kind property. Cash only—rehab required. Proof of funds required before showing will be approved.
