A Rare Opportunity to Own a Piece of Local History - Approximately 31 Acres of Historic Farmstead Living! Note: the State will be widening route 113 about 6 feet on both sides of the road. Steeped in history and lovingly held by the same family for five generations, this distinctive 31 acre property offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of the area's agricultural heritage. Located just 2 miles from town and approximately 9 miles to the Kankakee River State Park, this historic farmstead combines rural tranquility, productive farmland, and a story that dates back nearly two centuries. Originally granted to the Hawkins family in 1841 by President John Tyler, the farm was later registered as "Spring View Farm" in 1916 by David Nelson Hawkins. Known locally for its orchards, summer truck garden, homegrown produce, and honey, this property has been an important part of the township's agricultural history for generations. Approximately 22 acres are currently in crops. At the heart of the property sits a charming brick farmhouse with a large porch that wraps around the front porch. The home is believed to have been built between 1917 and 1919. Offering three bedrooms, the home retains much of its original character, including beautiful oversized wood trim, original doors, and timeless architectural details. The main level features a kitchen with pantry, living room, and a study that could also serve as an additional bedroom. The second floor includes three bedrooms, a bathroom, and a storage room. The home is in need of extensive updating and restoration, including electrical and plumbing improvements, offering an opportunity for someone with vision to bring this historic home back to life. A full basement provides additional space, with a toilet and shower already in place. The property also includes a collection of historic outbuildings, including a large corn crib, an original detached one-car garage, a spring house, smokehouse, chicken and rabbit houses, and a hand-hewn frame barn believed to be among the oldest structures of its kind in the township. Several of these historic structures will require substantial restoration. Recent improvements include a new roof and gutters on the home in 2023, a new roof on the detached garage in 2020, and a metal roof on the corn crib installed around 2009, furnace 2016, Kitchen 1965, flooring 1917 windows 1917. Whether your vision is to restore a historic farmhouse, continue an agricultural tradition, establish a country retreat, or simply enjoy the privacy and possibilities of 32 acres, Spring View Farm offers a truly unique opportunity. A small portion of the property is across Rt 113 that adjoins to the Hawkins Grove Subdivision. Part on each side of the road leading to the subdivision. After five generations, this beloved family farm is ready for its next chapter. The sellers hope its new owners will appreciate its remarkable history and cherish it as their family has for generations.
