Experience the best of both worlds - country living with in-town convenience - just two miles outside the heart of Genoa and only three miles from Sycamore, putting you within minutes of additional restaurants, shopping, and everyday essentials. This inviting two-story home, surrounded by peaceful cornfields, offers a blend of vintage character and everyday comfort. This home sits on nearly one-third of an acre of country land and is located within the Sycamore School District. The home features a large kitchen with a convenient peninsula, and a generous size walk-in pantry that offers great possibilities, whether for storage, a small home office, or a creative space. Upstairs, you'll find three bright bedrooms with generous windows that fill the home with natural light, and a full bathroom on the main level adds to its practicality. The basement is impressively clean for a home of this era - perfect for storage, hobbies, or possible future use. Step outside and enjoy the peacefulness of rural life, surrounded by open skies and wide fields - yet only minutes from Genoa's grocery stores, local dining. Whether you're looking for a quiet place to unwind, work from home, or enjoy a slower pace with quick access to town, this property offers the perfect balance of solitude and convenience.
