About this home
Historic, one-of-a-kind property available for the first time since the Greatest Generation came home from the Second World War. The property is a 8.5 acre MOL homestead with over a quarter mile of the Kishwaukee River curving along the West edge of the property. In the mid-1800s Combs Mill was located on this stretch of river, grinding grain, sawing lumber, and a local landmark that provided a gathering spot for the growing community of Sycamore. On this property today, with Combs Mill long gone, sits a 3 bed 1 bath farmhouse built in 1886. Although the home has not been updated in decades it has been well-maintained and cared for over the years and is accompanied by a steel 36' x 54' outbuilding. The home and outbuilding sit on approximately 8.5 acres on Brickville Rd. This is a rare opportunity to make a home on your own personal nature preserve only minutes away from the amenities of downtown Sycamore. With the river and woods providing opportunities for fishing, hiking, and kayaking just steps away from the house, and downtown Sycamore providing dining and entertainment a short drive away, this property would make an ideal vacation retreat or rental. Schedule a showing to see 28234 Brickville Rd today! Plan on scheduling enough time to take leisurely walk on the almost quarter mile trail cut in along the riverbank. Home and 8.5 acres MOL is to be split from parcel number 0607300005. Property split is subject to County Approval.
