About this home
Looking for the perfect blend of peace, space, and convenience? This stunning country property offers just under 5 acres, nestled minutes from both Champaign and Mahomet. Whether you dream of homesteading, starting a hobby farm, or simply enjoying wide-open space, this property delivers. The property features a half-acre of restored prairie, mature oak, hackberry, and sugar maple trees, plus everything you need for animals or projects: a 64'x36' Quonset hut with concrete floor and electric, a 24'x18' run-in/loafing shed, and an 18'x15' wooden shed-perfect for a chicken coop or gardening shed. Electric fencing is already in place, making it move-in ready for horses or other animals. Inside, you'll find over 2,400 square feet of beautifully updated living space with hardwood floors flowing through much of the home. The kitchen underwent a complete remodel in 2021, featuring insulated walls, all-new electrical (including a new panel in the basement), maple cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a rebuilt walk-in pantry for added storage, and a new window overlooking the yard. Just off the kitchen, a charming laundry/powder room highlights a built-in cabinet that's over 100 years old, adding character and history to the home. Upstairs, the primary suite features its own private bath, complemented by three additional bedrooms and a second full bathroom. Comfort is ensured with dual zoned HVAC, with the first-floor system replaced in 2016 and the second-floor system added in 2021. Major updates throughout the years include a new well and pump in 2009, a septic tank and aerator with a rebuilt drainage field in 2016, and a water heater in 2021, giving you peace of mind for years to come. This property is a rare find where country charm, modern updates, and practical amenities meet.
