Description
Tucked back from the road, this executive property has so much to offer. Sitting two miles west of Woodstock, this sprawling property is located within the perfect distance to nearby amenities yet provides ultimate privacy. Take the long winding private driveway to the custom, all brick ranch home, surrounded by picturesque oak trees. A brand new, completely shingled roof has already been scheduled for installation. You’ll find mature trees and cleared trails throughout this entire property leading to hidden lakes and ponds. This property borders a 70-acre nature preserve managed by the Land Conservancy of McHenry County. Pairing the managed habitat from the nature preserve with the grounds of this property makes it home to numerous wildlife species, including whitetail deer, turkeys, waterfowl, and a wide variety of wild songbirds. You are greeted by hardwood floors with an oversized dining room and office on either side of the front door as you enter the home. However, all of your attention is drawn straight ahead to a welcoming sitting area in the living room next to the stone, floor-to-ceiling wood-burning fireplace. The remainder of the spacious living room offers additional gathering space for entertainment of family and friends. The living room also provides access to a nice sized screened-in porch for a great place to sit and relax while enjoying the nature that surrounds you. The open flow layout leads from the living room into a huge kitchen with ample counter space, cabinets and a roomy pantry. A wrap-around island allows for additional meal prep space or seating adjacent to the dinette. Large windows allow abundant light into the home and beautiful views of the backyard and pond. A nice-sized laundry room is located off a private hallway from the kitchen. Following the hall out of the laundry room leads you to a half bath, then continues to a side door for entry into the 2-car garage. You’ll find the spacious master bedroom with an ensuite featuring a walk-in closet, powder room, and shower area at the home's opposite wing. Two additional bedrooms with tons of closet space are located just down the hall from the master, with a full bathroom between them. The full unfinished basement is just waiting for your plans to double the remaining square footage of this home. Off the main house and across the paved driveway, you’ll find twin 32’ X 48’ outbuildings with overhead doors providing ample room for parking and storage. Both have full cement floors with electricity. One of the buildings is also insulated with heat to allow temperature control throughout all seasons. There’s also a small cabin on the property that can be brought back to its original condition for use as separate guest quarters.
