Country Roads Real Estate

Historic School House

Small House

 

 

South Eden Rd.; Stockton, IL

249 acres of the most beautiful views in Jo Daviess County.

This wonderful property, located south of Stockton, is a nature-lover's dream. Wild-life abounds in the wooded areas and along the creek that runs through the property. There is no question that this could be a hunter's paradise! And don't forget about the 2 houses and the old school house.

The smaller home is in good shape, but does need some updating. There are 2 bedrooms, a bath, a fireplace, and nice kitchen area on the main floor along with hardwood floors, trim, and doors. The attic in this home could be finished for a child's bedroom, play room, or even a home office. The view from the living room area is spectacular. Rolling hills, streams, woods, and neighboring land is all there for the eyes to behold. This is a must see to appreciate!

The larger home on the property is in need of some TLC. If you, or someone you know, is into restoring old homes, this is the project dreams are made of. The inside of this home has potential! The all wood floors, trim, and doors are in excellent condition and would probably only need a bit of stripping, sanding, and refinishing to make them like new again.

Take a trip back into time for a moment. Imagine sitting in a one-room school house. The trip could be reality, for there is a historic school house situated on the property. The school house, inside, does need work as it has been a few years since youngsters were in there last! The old slate chalk-board is still on the wall and in good condition. Also to be found are some of the old desks. The school house at one time was fitting with electric, and the old light fixtures are still there. Also, the large prize would be the large wood-burning stove that is still operational, or at least could be.

Out of the 249 acres, approximately 111(+-) acres are tillable. The acreage is currently rented for this year. But this could also be an investment property, and not just a home. Aside from the 2 homes and the school house, there are several barns on the property. Most are in good to excellent condition, but there are a few that need work.

To appreciate this property with all its trimmings, call or email us to make an appointment. We can almost guarantee that you won't be dissappointed.
