Looking for a three-bedroom country home with acreage near Aledo, Illinois? I'm nestled between Aledo and Joy on just over two acres, with two garages, a fenced pasture previously used for horses, and plenty of room to enjoy life outside. You'll find me at 890 13th Street in Joy, approximately seven minutes from Aledo's shops, restaurants, schools, and everyday conveniences, and about 15 minutes east of the Mississippi River. Close enough to grab dinner in town, with room to come home and spread out. My yard offers open grassy spaces for gardening and yard games, mature shade trees, and a wooded area to explore. Bring your outdoor plans-and save a little time for doing absolutely nothing on my deck. Inside, my spacious kitchen features beautiful hickory cabinets and room for a freestanding island. My dining room sits between the kitchen and living room, showing off built-in cabinetry, pillars, and a large window that fills the space with natural light. I offer three bedrooms, plenty of closets, and laundry conveniently located on my enclosed front porch. No hauling laundry up and down basement stairs! My partial basement provides additional storage and an extra shower, while my two garages offer space for parking, hobbies, and projects. My practical side deserves some attention, too: a recently updated furnace and water heater, a roof updated in 2020, and a private well approximately 400 feet deep with a sand filter and updated well head. A little room to roam, a little shade to sit under, and a place to make your own. Come meet me and see how country life could feel.
This peaceful 2 bedroom home is located between Aledo, IL and Joy, IL. Only 7mins away from all the restaurants, shops, community events, schools, doctors offices, and everything else Aledo has to offer. Only 15mins east of the Mississippi River. Come home to your own personal slice of paradise! This huge 2 Acre yard provides lots of space to enjoy. Large grassy areas perfect for yard games or gardening. Mature trees provide shade in many spaces of the yard for a relaxing summer day, as well as some "wooded area" to explore. The home features 2 garages and a chicken coop on the property to enjoy farm fresh eggs. The private well is 400ft deep with a sand filter and an updated well head. The roof was updated in 2020. This large kitchen features beautiful hickory cabinets and offers plenty of space for a floating island. The Dining room is in between the living room and kitchen and features built in cabinets, pillars, and a large window allowing natural light to fill the room. This cozy home provides lots of closets and storage space, as well as a main level laundry room. The partial basement is great for storage and features an extra shower.
