Property Description

Classic Country Living with Modern Comfort on 5 Acres Nestled along a quiet rural road just outside Watseka, this charming 1.5-story farmhouse offers the perfect blend of functionality, privacy, and updated living. With 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and over 3,000 square feet, this home provides spacious comfort for multi-generational families, hobby farmers, or anyone seeking a peaceful country lifestyle. A standout feature is the thoughtfully designed 2012 addition, which expanded the home to include a bright and airy living room with fireplace and a main-level primary suite complete with tray ceilings and serene views of the property. The kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, modern lighting, and granite-style counters, while the adjacent dining area is filled with natural light - perfect for family gatherings. Additional living space includes a cheerful home office/sunroom, large bedrooms, and ample storage throughout. Enjoy peace of mind with an attached garage and a whole-house generator to keep your systems running during any season. Outside, you'll find four large outbuildings, ideal for equipment, animals, or workshop space. Five operational grain bins provide storage or ag-use flexibility, and the surrounding 5 acres offer open space, mature trees, and plenty of possibilities - from homesteading to weekend bonfires. With a move-in ready interior and incredible outdoor utility, this property delivers peaceful, practical country living - all within reach.

MY BLOGS

THE FRONT PORCH SWING

Oh, the memories. I remember my girls spending countless hours swinging front to back and side to side, hanging out with the neighborhood kids, splashing with the water hose, or crafting top-secret plans with their imaginations. It was awesome. How times have changed. With my two youngest girls slowly nearing college graduation and my older girls working hard in their careers, the days of simple life are taken over by group texts and long-distance daily check-ins. It's just not the same.

less is more, unless, it's for less.

Each day, I'd get my MLS home showing sheets ready, the electronic key card that opens lock-boxes, get dressed with minutes turning into seconds frantically starring at the time ticking away. All ready but just need to ...find ....one matching sock.
