13529 W 179th ST Homer Glen, IL 60491

This might just be the loveliest spot in all of Homer Glen and a place to call your own. Uniquely nestled between farmland and nature, this large farmhouse is the perfect blend of seclusion without isolation for homesteading or traditional living. It's just minutes from major expressways, stores and restaurants and yet provides an almost endless view of nature. Head to the back of this 3+ acre property for a lovely sunrise each morning and walk your own private trail or visit the chickens complete with 2 large chicken pens and house. End each day on the custom built screened-in portion of the large wraparound porch for a gorgeous, one-of-a-kind sunset view. This truly is a unique spot of land. Will County Land Use Department shows property zoned E-2. American Legal Publishing defines E-2 as "allowing farming and the keeping of horses and domestic farm animals as an accessory use to the primary residential use of the property." Buyers and agents should contact Will County directly to verify these specifics regarding animals and usage of the parcel. The entire home interior was recently painted, the roof/soffit/facia was replaced in the last 5 to 7 years, and the electric panel to the home is generator ready. The home is a large and open farm-style house. Its countless large windows let in glorious amounts of sunshine and is positioned to provide passive solar heat in the winter. There are hardwood floors in nearly every room and new hickory floors in the large, lodge-like family room complete with a vaulted, pine-covered ceiling, rustic cedar wall and stone covered fireplace! This home also boasts a large, open, and completely updated modern farmhouse kitchen with beautiful granite countertops and backsplashes, all new lighting and stunning brand new appliances: refrigerator, oven-range, microwave, and dishwasher - perfect for family meals and gatherings. Two of the bathrooms have been recently updated. The front living room was newly remodeled and is currently being used as a 5th bedroom, complete with bathroom access and sliding barn doors. This room could also be used as a library or home office. If you're looking for some good storage options, you will find them here with a large 2.5 car garage, bonus attic space above the laundry room/garage, large 29ft attic (accessible by staircase in #4 bedroom) and a partially finished, full basement. There are many more great features and beautiful views just waiting to be seen!
