How would you like to have Stephen A. Forbes State Recreation Area in your backyard? For the buyer whose weekends revolve around the woods, the water, and the next season, 8015 Brubaker Road is a place to come home to between adventures. Beautifully renovated and thoughtfully cared for, this home makes an impression from the floors to the windowsills. The kitchen opens to the main living area, giving everyone a place to gather after a day outdoors. A covered front porch and stamped backyard patio offer even more room to slow down and enjoy life. No matter what season it is, this is a home you will love year-round. Beautifully updated, you will love the way the French door connects the outside and inside living area. The 16 x 26 attached finished and insulated garage with a side door into the home is an extra addition you will love. Need a shop? The 30x40 Shop Building is 14 ft+ tall and is made for an outdoor lifestyle, with a dedicated tack room and workshop that is heated and cooled. The deer mounts and wildlife pictured in the home were locally harvested-a reflection of the outdoor tradition surrounding this property. Nearby Stephen A. Forbes State Recreation Area spans 3,103 acres. Public hunting opportunities include archery deer, turkey, ducks, dove, and small game, subject to Illinois DNR rules. Its 585-acre lake offers 2 boat ramps, 18 miles of shoreline, and fishing for bass, crappie, and catfish, all just at your back door. Camping, hiking, horseback riding, and a designated swimming beach make the area just as inviting beyond hunting season. From an early morning in the woods to an afternoon on the water, this is a beautifully cared-for home base. Properties in this area seldom come on the market! Ready to take a look?
