    Property Description

    Set along a quiet country road near ILL City, this 40± acre RI CO property delivers a rare mix of comfort, utility, and freedom. Located less than 30 miles from the Quad Cities International Airport, it offers the convenience of proximity without sacrificing privacy. The centerpiece is a spacious log home wrapped entirely in porch. Inside, vaulted ceilings carry through the kitchen, living room, and family room, where skylights and a wood stove create a warm, inviting feel. The kitchen is anchored by a large island and designed for gathering. The main level features a primary suite with attached bath, while a loft above provides flexible space for guests, work, or creative use. A four-season room—currently serving as a bedroom—adds even more versatility.The finished basement expands the footprint with three non-conforming bedrooms, a full bath, a hidden bonus room, and a built-in concrete vault with a secure safe door. A backup generator adds peace of mind.Outside, the improvements set this property apart. A 44'x64' insulated and heated shop includes a full-length covered concrete porch and a hangar door that opens to a private taxiway leading to a grass airstrip on the farm. A separate machine shed with enclosed lean-tos offers ample storage for equipment or livestock needs. The land features two ponds, pockets of hardwood timber with strong wildlife presence, and 26+ acres of FSA tillable ground currently in alfalfa, plus a CRP border strip. In Rockridge School District.
