TWO homes on 2.52 acres, just 25 minutes from Champaign! The main home features 3 bedrooms, 1 bath, roughly 2,224 sq ft, a functional farmhouse layout, and a roof updated in 2012. The second living space, converted from a remarkably solid former poultry barn, adds approximately 1,950 sq ft of finished living area with 1 bed / 1 bath, plus an additional 4,576 sq ft wide-open span. With its $30,000 heavy-duty metal roof (just installed 10 years ago), the structure is perfect for someone needing on-site office space, multiple offices, or a place to operate a small business while enjoying separate living quarters. This layout is also a fantastic fit for multigenerational living, living in the 2nd residence while renovating the main home, or using the barn for workshops, hobbies, or equipment. Main home has central A/C (not used in several years, sold as-is); the second residence stays comfortable in summer despite no A/C (could be easily added). Outside, you'll find a 26'x24' detached garage, a spacious 59'x46' machine shed, a 54'x54' traditional barn, and three grain bins-ready for storage, projects, animals, or extra income ideas. Sold as-is. Come explore the possibilities!
