Land with Home for Sale in Ellis Grove, Illinois
6173 Collins Rd, Ellis Grove, IL 62241
COMING SOON-showings begin Friday, August 21. OPEN HOUSE SATURDAY AUGUST 22 from 1:00 pm to 2:30 pm. What a surprise you will find at the end of the long gravel road leading to this magnificent property! Very private, tall pine trees greet you. The energy friendly earth home was built in 1989 and still feels new! From the open floor plan kitchen, dining room and living room, the area is bright and cheerful. A fireplace in the living room just makes this solid house feel like HOME! Solid oak cabinets, doors and trim make it feel warm and welcoming. Anderson windows, new carpet and new kitchen flooring tell you it has been well kept by the owner of 35 years. Three bedrooms and 2 baths and a large laundry room and attached garage round out the residence. Walk outside and sit on the screened in patio. A small pond with aerator keeps the birds and wildlife happy. You will find a 30x30 shed with another 1 car garage and insulated shop. Shop is heated and cooled, has a water heater & sink, and a walk-in freezer (needs a bit of work). The owner was a taxidermist for 25 years and the shop were her business building. It would make a great man cave/she shed for any project you may undertake there or just a get-away for the quiet. There are no other homes past this one on this road. Surrounded by open fields and the views are breathtaking. If you are looking for a very private country property, don't let this one pass you by. There are 2.33 acres but you'll feel like you are in the deep country. There's apple, plum, peach and pear fruit trees, established perennial flower beds, two outbuildings for raising your own chickens and livestock. So much to see here. Preapproved serious buyers please. Come and experience this one.
