Jersey County
Private Country Home With Recreational Acres
17157 Liberty Ridge Grafton, IL 62037
Description
Located in Jersey County, Illinois, this property offers a combination of residential living, timbered acreage, and recreational opportunities. The blacktop country road takes you to the winding driveway, which will lead you nearly one half of a mile to the home. The morning and evening drive is sure to be full of deer, turkeys, rabbits, and squirrels.
The home is partially earthen with a brick exterior and a metal roof designed for durability and low exterior maintenance. The residence includes three bedrooms and three bathrooms and has been well-maintained. Inside, the layout features a large kitchen with abundant cabinetry that opens into the dining and living areas, creating a functional space for daily use and gatherings. The living room includes vaulted ceilings that enhance the sense of space, along with skylights and large windows that allow natural light into the interior throughout the day. There are two bedrooms with full bathrooms and an additional full bath that serves the spare bedroom and the remainder of the home.
The surrounding land consists of rolling terrain that is fully stocked with white oak trees. These mature oaks provide an excellent early fall food source for deer and turkeys. The wooded ridges and natural cover make the property excellent for hunting and outdoor recreation. There is a rock-bottom creek that runs north and south through the property. This area has some rock outcroppings and provides excellent exploring opportunities. There is a small clearing on the east border that could be planted as a food plot, making it an excellent area for easy-access hunting.
Additional improvements include a 30x40 pole barn that can be used for equipment storage, vehicles, or a larger workshop. There is also a smaller insulated building equipped with a window air conditioning unit and a portable heater. This space can be used for hobbies, projects, or a quiet workspace, depending on individual needs. The previous owner made custom duck calls here, and the smell of the woodworking still permeates the walls.
Access to the property is convenient while still maintaining a private setting. Its proximity to Grafton allows access to local services, dining, wineries, a waterpark, and the Illinois River corridor.
This Jersey County acreage presents a combination of residential improvements and land features suitable for hunting, recreation, and country living.
