If you've been thinking about moving to the country, then check out this 4BR/1.5BA farm house for sale in rural Bureau Co, IL. Situated on 3 acres and surrounded by mature trees, this house has lots of breathing room with extra outbuildings for storage or tinkering hobbies. Included on the property are 2 small grain bins and a silo that are no longer in use but could be re-used with a little creativity. I have seen these grain bins turned into guest cottages and children's playhouses. Built between 1900-1915, the approximately 3,000 sq ft house is full of character! The french doors and original woodwork throughout the house are exceptionally beautiful! The house has two porches.. Watch the sunset on the enclosed porch that faces the west or relax in the pure country air on the south facing porch. Have a sense of security with the installed Generac home generator. Many updates include new septic system in 2009, new well in 2005, new electrical box in 2005, new roof and gutters in 2022. The new furnace was installed in 2009 and has been well maintained by the installer. This house is extremely well built with irreplaceable character and plenty of outdoor living!
