Property Description
Country living awaits on this beautiful 4-bedroom, 2-full bathroom home situated on 2.72 acres in rural Gridley, IL. Surrounded by open farmland, this property offers peaceful views and privacy while still being conveniently located just 2 miles from Rte 24 and only 8 miles from I-55. In 2016, a major addition and upgrades were completed, including a 2.5-car heated garage, attractive landscaping, a concrete driveway, and a composite back deck. The house portion of the new addition features a large mudroom/foyer, a full bathroom, a den/office, and main floor laundry--all connecting seamlessly to the existing home. The kitchen has been beautifully updated with custom oak cabinetry to the ceiling, granite countertops, a neutral backsplash, and stainless-steel appliances. While there is a main floor primary suite, three additional bedrooms are located on the upper level, each offering massive closets for excellent storage. In addition, both levels of the home have bonus rooms perfect for extra storage or could be used as a den/office. The home showcases beautiful woodwork throughout, and any carpeted areas have hardwood floors underneath believed to be in great condition. The entire home is equipped with newer Andersen replacement windows, including the heated and cooled front porch, which adds valuable year-round living space. Quality updates provide peace of mind for the next owner, including a new roof, gutters, gutter guards, septic tank, and Trane furnace all completed in 2018, along with a Generac generator (2014) and reverse osmosis system (2020). Outside, the property features an impressive collection of six outbuildings, offering endless possibilities for storage, hobby farming, equipment, or business use. These include a 54x99 machine shed, 20x14 cob shed, 18x40 chicken house, 44x68 Quonset with a 220V outlet for welding and new electrical in conduit, a straw barn, and a corn crib. All of the outbuildings have electrical except the corn crib and cob shed. With its acreage, privacy, thoughtful updates, and exceptional outbuilding space, this rural Gridley property offers a truly unique opportunity to enjoy peaceful country living with room to grow.
