Wow! If you've been searching for serious space, look no further. With over 3,900 sq ft above grade, this is a rare find. Set on over 8 acres across 3 parcels, this country retreat offers sweeping panoramic views from nearly every window-framing the countryside like a living work of art. This property, located in Joy, IL only 7 miles West of Aledo, even has the nostalgic old red barn. Step into a welcoming 4-season room that sets the tone for the rest of the home-bright, open, and full of possibility. From there, flow into the elegant formal dining room, where the charm of the original farmhouse woodwork has been lovingly preserved.
