Description
Tucked along a quiet country road in rural Malta, just 10 miles West of DeKalb and Sycamore, this private 5 acre property offers space, flexibility, and a true connection to the outdoors. Fully fenced with a smart driveway gate, the setting is peaceful and surrounded by open skies, prairie grasses, and seasonal plantings including raspberries, apples, cherries, pecans, asparagus and rhubarb! The thoughtfully designed 4 bedroom, 2 full bath home features solid oak trim and crown molding throughout, an updated kitchen with island, custom table, and programmable under-cabinet lighting, and a flexible bonus room ideal for an office, library, or playroom. Main-level laundry, a full bath, and mudroom add everyday convenience. Outdoor living is just as inviting with a three-season room, covered patio, and a 16' elevated deck overlooking one of two ponds and scenic rural views. A standout feature is the 30x60 outbuilding with three bays, designed to accommodate future heat and a bathroom...ideal for hobbies, storage, or business use. Additional highlights include a newer roof with 40+ year shingles (approx. 4 years old), a deep 185' well, underground drainage system, plus a 10x10 insulated shed and 8x10 playhouse. A unique opportunity to enjoy space, privacy, and versatility-all in a beautiful rural setting.
