No matter what season it is, this is a home you will love year-round. Beautifully updated, you will love the way the French door connects the outside and inside living area. The 16 x 26 attached finished and insulated garage with a side door into the home is an extra addition you will love. Need a shop?

The deer mounts and wildlife pictured in the home were locally harvested-a reflection of the outdoor tradition surrounding this property. Nearby Stephen A. Forbes State Recreation Area spans 3,103 acres. Public hunting opportunities include archery deer, turkey, ducks, dove, and small game, subject to Illinois DNR rules. Its 585-acre lake offers 2 boat ramps, 18 miles of shoreline, and fishing for bass, crappie, and catfish, all just at your back door. Camping, hiking, horseback riding, and a designated swimming beach make the area just as inviting beyond hunting season. From an early morning in the woods to an afternoon on the water, this is a beautifully cared-for home base. Properties in this area seldom come on the market! Ready to take a look?
