    What's special

    If you've been dreaming of wide-open space, fresh air, and a place to build something truly your own, this five-acre property on the outskirts of Wilmington is calling your name! Surrounded by peaceful farmland and just one hour from Chicago, offering the kind of privacy and potential that's hard to find-and even harder to let go. The log cabin-inspired home features three bedrooms and two bathrooms, and while it could use a little TLC, it's packed with character and ready for someone with vision. Whether you're looking to restore, renovate, or reimagine, this is your chance to create a home that reflects your lifestyle and dreams. Beyond the home, the property shines with a detached 2.5-car garage, a 60x30-foot pole barn perfect for storage or livestock, a tranquil pond, and an unfinished carriage house with endless possibilities- think guest quarters, studio, or income-producing space, the possibilities are endless. There's room here for pigs, goats, chickens, gardens, and whatever else your heart desires. Wilmington offers small town charm with big personality. From antique shops and cozy diners to the iconic Gemini Giant and the scenic Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie, this community is rich in character and outdoor adventure. This isn't just a place to live-it's a place to grow, create, and thrive. Come walk the land, feel the breeze, and imagine what's possible.
