What's special
This is a charming country home, originally built as a schoolhouse in rural Lovington, IL. Situated on 1.64 acres of land, this property boasts several fruit trees, plenty of yard space, and beautiful countryside views out of every window! It was homesteaded in 1914 and has been cared for by the same family for the last 50 years, with MANY renovations along the way!
In 2022, the bottom floor received a total makeover into an open floor plan that includes a brand-new kitchen! The kitchen floor was leveled and covered in vinyl flooring, then a whole new footprint was laid out with brand new cabinetry, a premium deep basin sink, beautiful leather finish granite countertops, and all new Whirlpool appliances.
The main floor has all been covered in premium vinyl plank flooring, there is new lighting in all but one room, and all rooms of the home received fresh Sherwin Williams paint in the last 2 years. There is new drywall on most downstairs outer walls, new hand-made window frames, replacement front and sliding glass doors, beautiful light fixtures, and wood wrapped beams for that inviting country feel!
The downstairs bathroom received a new tub surround about 10 years ago, then was also made over in 2022 with new lighting, vanity, mirror, and flooring.
The foundation has been very well maintained over the years, with 2 sides completely replaced.
Additionally, this home has a 3-car garage, replacement windows and siding and a metal roof.
