Dreaming of homestead living, wide-open space, and a little more peace and quiet? This remarkable renovated LOG HOME sits on 5 ACRES, offering nearly 2,900 sq ft and the kind of simple country lifestyle that's increasingly hard to find. Enjoy incredible sunrise views from the kitchen and dining room, stunning sunsets from the covered porch, room to spread out, and the privacy that comes with having no neighbors right on top of you. Horses, chickens, goats & more are permitted, making this an incredible opportunity to create your own private homestead. Inside, the warm character and craftsmanship of a true log home are complemented by extensive updates, including a MAIN FLOOR bedroom and full bathroom. So much NEW in recent years: NEW roof & gutters ('22), updated kitchen with refinished cabinets and new shelving, all NEW appliances including refrigerator/dishwasher/stove/microwave, fresh paint and NEW flooring throughout, NEW lighting, updated bathroom ('21), and NEW Maytag washer/dryer. The attached 2-car garage has been transformed into the ultimate man cave with NEW lighting, insulation, floor covering, electric subpanel & split heating/AC system. An extra-DEEP BASEMENT with interior & exterior access offers even more possibilities. The sellers have invested immensely and thoughtfully into improving this special property. Enjoy country living without giving up convenience-just minutes from downtown Yorkville, restaurants and shopping. Zoned A-1 Agricultural with a Special Use Permit, the owners originally purchased and extensively improved the property with plans to operate a business from the premises. The A-1 zoning also offers added flexibility and may make future expansion, including an addition, detached pole barn or outbuilding, more feasible than typical residential zoning, subject to applicable county approvals and requirements. Five acres. A true log home. Room for animals, hobbies, business and more. This isn't just a home-it's an opportunity to live a little differently.
