Rock River Getaway With Home, Shop And Water Access

Located along the banks of the Rock River, this property combines privacy, recreation, and convenience in one incredible setting. Tucked off the road and surrounded by mature timber, the ranch-style home offers a quiet, scenic escape with direct access to the water. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence or a weekend retreat, this property delivers the peace and seclusion you've been looking for while still being just minutes from town. As you enter the home, you'll notice the inviting, open flow from the front living room into the kitchen. The kitchen provides plenty of cabinet space and room for a small table or breakfast nook. Toward the back of the home is an additional family room, perfect for gatherings or quiet evenings. Sliding doors lead out to a screened-in porch where you can enjoy the sights and sounds of nature in total comfort. The primary bedroom features a walk-in closet and private bathroom, while two additional bedrooms share a full bath. A first-floor laundry room adds everyday convenience. The lower level offers even more usable space with a partially finished rec room and a home office area. There's also a workshop and an exterior access door that makes it easy to move larger items in and out. Behind the house, a 24x27 outbuilding provides great storage for boats, canoes, kayaks, and outdoor gear, giving you everything you need to take full advantage of the river lifestyle. A gradual lane cuts through the timber leading down to the river's edge. This area could easily be improved by clearing out sections of undergrowth to open up stunning views of the Rock River. It's the perfect spot to fish, relax, or launch a small watercraft. The stretch of river here is calm and accessible, ideal for kayaking, canoeing, or casting a line. Located just upstream from the confluence with the Pecatonica River and near Nygren Wetlands and several forest preserves, the recreational opportunities are endless with fishing, paddling, hiking, and wildlife watching all right at your fingertips. This property offers a rare blend of privacy and convenience with quick access to nearby towns and local amenities. Whether your goal is to enjoy the water, the woods, or simply a slower pace of life, this Rock River home offers the perfect setting to make lasting memories in the great outdoors.
