Welcome to this stunning hobby farm in Ogle County, where tranquility meets functionality. This property offers a balanced blend of tillable land, pasture, a charming farmhouse, and versatile buildings, all nestled along a lightly traveled road. With 9 acres of tillable ground currently in hay and 3 acres of fenced pasture divided into several paddocks, this farm is perfect for both agriculture and livestock. The large farmhouse greets you with its inviting presence. Step inside to discover a spacious layout that flows effortlessly from the kitchen to the dining room and family room, complete with a cozy wood fireplace. The kitchen is the heart of the home, featuring a generous eat-in island and ample space for entertaining family and friends. Upstairs, you'll find three well-sized bedrooms. The oversized master suite boasts abundant storage, a convenient powder room, and a luxurious walk-in stone shower. Plus, it offers private access to a second-story porch that overlooks the stunning property. The two additional bedrooms share a full bathroom, making this layout ideal for families or guests. The lower level remains unfinished but provides plenty of room for storage or future expansion. Heading outside you're greeted 34 by 61 heated workshop, which includes an 800+ square foot one-bedroom apartment-perfect for guests or as rental income. This apartment features its own kitchen and laundry room, with potential to convert part of the shop into a second bedroom if desired. Adjacent to the workshop, you'll find a 38 by 96 metal building currently used for equipment storage. Convenient access to the different paddocks on the eastern side of the farm makes managing your livestock a breeze. The property also features a large red barn with an office and tack room.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
