Located in a rural setting just outside of Rochelle, this Ogle County property offers a combination of residential living, functional outbuildings, and open space suited for a variety of uses. The layout provides separation from nearby properties while still maintaining access to town, making it a practical option for those looking for acreage with usable improvements. The farmhouse sits in a central position on the property and has been maintained with attention to its original layout while providing functional living space. Inside, the home features a natural flow between the kitchen, dining area, and family room. The kitchen is equipped with a large amount of cabinet storage and counter space, allowing for meal preparation and daily use. An eat-in island provides space for informal dining, while a separate dining room offers additional room for gatherings. The dining area connects directly to an oversized family room, creating a continuous main living space. The main level of the home includes two bedrooms and a full bathroom, offering convenient access without the need for stairs. Upstairs, there are two additional bedrooms along with space designated for a second bathroom that is ready for installation. This layout provides flexibility depending on how the home is used. From the kitchen, there is direct access to a back deck that overlooks the outbuildings and open areas of the property. This outdoor space connects the home to the working portions of the acreage and allows for easy movement between the structures. The outbuildings are a key component of the property and offer a range of uses. The primary building measures approximately 36 by 56 and is set up as a fully functional shop. It includes three overhead doors on one side for vehicles and an additional door for larger equipment access. The building is equipped with heat, hot water, floor drains, and extensive lighting. This setup supports equipment storage, maintenance work, or workshop use. A second building measures approximately 24 by 44 and includes a concrete floor. While currently unfinished, it provides a solid structure that can be completed and adapted for additional storage, workspace, or other uses. The design includes overhead doors on both sides, allowing for drive-through access that can accommodate trailers, boats, or equipment. An 80 by 40 open lean-to structure adds additional covered storage. This area is suitable for equipment, machinery, or vehicles and is positioned alongside a large concrete parking area that supports easy access and maneuverability. The open ground surrounding the buildings provides space that could be used for pasture, fencing, or general outdoor use. The layout supports the addition of livestock areas or continued use as open ground, depending on the next owner's plans. This property combines a maintained farmhouse with multiple functional outbuildings and open acreage in a location that is a short drive from Rochelle. Its structure and layout support a range of uses, including residential living, equipment storage, and agricultural activities.
