    Mulberry Farm — 10.42 Acres with Pond, Cottage & Barns Welcome to Mulberry Farm, a beautiful 10.42-acre property just outside Nauvoo offering a unique combination of open rolling grassland, mature trees, wooded acreage, a spring-fed pond, large barns, and a charming finished cottage. The 550ish sq. ft. one-bedroom cottage has been extensively renovated and features a full kitchen with full-size appliances and dishwasher, pantry, living area, bathroom with tiled shower, laundry hookups, A/C, and a covered front porch. Recent improvements within the last year include new drywall, updated finishes, and new LVP flooring. The approximately one-acre spring-fed pond is a beautiful centerpiece of the property and is perfect for fishing, canoeing, wildlife watching, or simply enjoying the view. The property includes 2+ acres of gently rolling open grassland, a picnic area and fire-pit area, numerous mature mulberry trees, producing pear trees, and plenty of room for gardening, recreation, animals, or simply enjoying the outdoors. A large 50' × 50' barn with an approximately 20' × 50' lean-to provides excellent space for equipment, storage, hobbies, a workshop, and covered parking. An additional older barn adds character and potential. The original farmhouse remains on the property and could be restored, repurposed, or removed according to the new owner's plans. With its pond, acreage, cottage, barns, mature trees, including several mulberry trees, other fruit trees, and beautiful rural setting, Mulberry Farm is a property with character, possibilities, and plenty of room to make it your own.
    What the owner loves about this home
    I love the seclusion, peace and natural beauty that this property offers. This is a beautiful canvas for the new owners to come and unleash their creative abilities. The home has been completely redone from the studs in and out in the past two years. It is cozy and easy to live in. I love coming out many mornings to see rabbits or deer, hummingbirds and other wildlife. I love to take a little row around the pond in the evening. I love to have a campfire and watch the sunset turn into night and hear some of the coyotes in the distance yelp out to one another. I love to be able to unload my mind as I walk around the property and see the variety of beautiful creations that are all over. This is just a wonderful place to be.
