Description
Tucked discreetly beyond the roadside and sheltered by a natural canopy of trees, this beautifully converted barn rests on a serene 2.05-acre lot. The wrap-around deck welcomes you to take in sweeping views of the surrounding landscape, offering a perfect spot to unwind or entertain. Step inside and experience the home’s undeniable charm, highlighted by exposed beams, polished hardwood floors, and a spacious, open floor plan. The main level features a cozy living room, a convenient half bath, and a versatile bedroom with an ensuite full bath-ideal as a primary suite or guest room. First-floor laundry enhances everyday convenience, while the open-concept great room seamlessly flows into the kitchen and dining area. A screened-in porch on the southern side offers a peaceful retreat immersed in nature. Upstairs, discover three additional bedrooms and a generously sized primary suite, complete with a sprawling walk-in closet. An updated full bath with double sinks adds modern convenience to the upper level. The lower level offers practicality and potential, featuring a one-car garage, a mechanical room, a converted silo storage area, and a finished space with a half bath that could easily be upgraded to a full bath. Backed by the scenic Covered Bridge Trails Subdivision, this property offers unmatched privacy, timeless charm, and modern updates, making it a perfect retreat or forever home. Notable updates: In August 2024, the deck was completely resurfaced, with framing and railings repaired or replaced to ensure durability and style. A brand-new roof was installed in July 2024, complete with a transferable warranty, providing peace of mind for years to come. Close proximity to downtown Crystal Lake, train, shopping and restaurants.
