Beautiful historic brick home just minutes from Homer Lake Forest Preserve! Built in 1856, this home is solid and built to last. Gorgeous views on an attractive acre near the salt fork river with room to roam, and loads of space! Boasting large rooms with incredible 10 foot ceilings, original woodwork, hardwood flooring, and floor to ceiling windows. This home is a gem! Four bedrooms, 1.5 baths with an additional (almost finished) master bath. The kitchen was updated in 2020. New geothermal unit (one for first floor in 2016 and one for second floor in 2021). New septic in 2012 with new pump/aerator in 2021. A 24x50 barn with new electric in 2014 is a wealth of storage and possibilities. Complete with a chicken coop and plenty of room to garden, there is so much to love about this property. The deck and pergola completes a tranquil setting for relaxing or entertaining.
