Privately Located Log Cabin Nestled In The Timber Near Forreston

5660 N Brookville Road Shannon, IL 61078

Description

Located southwest of Forreston this property has an extremely versatile mix. Sitting among large timber and ag tracts, this property provides serenity and privacy. Entering the property, you'll notice a line of timber that shields the home from visibility of the road. First, you come to an open area that currently has a large garden but would accommodate horses or other animals (zoned ag-1). Up the drive is a detached 3-car garage. As you continue up the lane, you are greeted by the log home surrounded by mature timber. The home has an open floor plan from the family room with a wood stove into the dining area and kitchen. The kitchen has ample cabinet and countertop space. The family naturally flows into a large room with a gas fireplace that could be used as additional living space or an office. Both of these spaces have sliding doors that take you out to the large rear deck where you can view wildlife. Turkeys and deer frequent the property. On the other wing of the home is where you will find two good-sized bedrooms and a large bathroom. The laundry is located on the main floor close to the bedrooms. Multiple staircases take you to the basement. This walk-out lower level and partial exposure make this space extremely functional. The lower level has room for additional bedrooms if needed or space for an office, workout area, extra living space with a half bathroom. The mechanical room has ample room for storage. The lower level has two doors that go outside. Forreston 221 School District. Contact Land Specialist Todd Henry today to schedule your showing.
