Live and play all in one place. Space for all of your toys under multiple roofs. Available for the first time ever, the Rittof Farm. A one-of-a-kind property created by one-of-a-kind. Sitting along the historic I&M Canal, this property offers quiet country living with a 2300 sq. ft. ranch home with 4 barns and endless possibilities, while still being in town and close to I-55 and I-80. A concrete drive leads to the home, built in 2010. Guests are welcomed by a tiled foyer, with secondary bedrooms and hall bath to the right and the master suite set apart for privacy. The hallway opens into a wide living/kitchen/dining area with windows overlooking the canal and trail. The kitchen features custom Birch Romar cabinets, plenty of counter space, a pantry, and island with sink and breakfast bar. The mudroom/laundry layout is a highlight-half bath, cabinets, counters, an indoor clothesline, and direct access to the master walk-in closet, bath, and bedroom. Perfect for coming in from the barnyard without tracking dirt through the house. The master bath includes dual sinks, makeup mirror, and a walk-in shower with dual showerheads, bottle shelf, and foot rest. The master also has canal views and access to the covered porch. The basement-9' ceilings, daylight windows, bath rough-in, and radiant heat-offers tons of potential. Porches were excavated underneath for concrete storage/shelter space. Heating includes radiant floor and baseboard, plus traditional furnace/AC. Private well with Iron Breaker system and private septic. Oversized attached 2-car garage on the house. The barnyard has access from Blackberry Lane and from behind the home. The main barn (40x70) has concrete floors, electric, wraparound loft, enclosed storage/office, and a built-in crane lift. It is big enough to store all sizes of toys, or multiple vehicles. Water is available from its own well. Two additional barns (30x50 each) with electric and gravel floors, plus a 24x30 hay/feed barn with electric. Animals allowed with Village of Channahon approval. This 1.99-acre lot backs to the I&M Canal, with room to launch a canoe/kayak or fish. Four Rivers Environmental Center is just down the road. I&M Canal trail to walk, jog, or bike is across the canal. This property has been in the family for 75 years-and is now ready for the next chapter. Agent related to seller.
