Tucked away on a peaceful country road just outside Towanda, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath farmhouse offers the kind of wide-open sky and slower pace that's getting harder to find. Set on a generous lot with mature trees and a versatile 40x60 machine shed, this property is equal parts homestead and haven. Step inside to find warm wood floors, an open and airy living space, and a kitchen made for gathering with abundant cabinetry, a large center island, and room to spread out for weeknight dinners or weekend baking marathons. The main level flows easily from living room to kitchen to dining, with a mudroom/laundry area that keeps farm life organized right at the back door. A main-floor bedroom sits conveniently near a full bath, offering easy potential for a main-level primary, which would be ideal for one-level living or hosting guests without the stairs. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms provide flexible space for family, guests, or a home office, including a spacious room that's the largest in the house. Ceilings with charming farmhouse angles add character throughout. Outside is where this property really shines. The 40x60 machine shed has its back half finished, perfect for a workshop, gym, or hobby space, while the front offers wide-open storage for equipment, vehicles, or toys. The acreage gives you room to garden, raise animals, or just enjoy the quiet, with front-row seats to central Illinois sunsets over open farmland. Whether you're dreaming of a hobby farm or just more elbow room than a subdivision lot allows, this is a rare chance to have it all just minutes from town conveniences.
