Step back in time on this peaceful 2.84 acre property. A part of the founding settlement of the town of Avery in the late 1800s, the 3 bed, 1 bath home was part of the historic Avery Hotel and served as a local social center along with the Avery Train Station. A 3,200+ sq ft, 100+ yr old barn makes great potential for a wedding venue, bed and breakfast, or creative event space as well. The charming grain bin could be transformed into a covered patio. Multiple outbuildings, including one that spans over 1,700 sq ft w/ high ceiling, ideal for RVs, boats, or as additional venue space. Mature trees and serene landscape surround the property, while being just off US-12 allows for convenient access to Chicago in under 1.5 hours. A rare piece of history with endless potential.
