SERENITY-Situated on a rare 1.9 Acre double lot along the backwaters of the Illinois River in Sycamore Bay, this property offers a unique blend of privacy, water views, & outdoor lifestyle—without the requirement of flood insurance.

Designed for flexibility, the home features a 3-bedroom main/upper level with office & additional flex space, already plumbed for a future bathroom—giving buyers the opportunity to customize and add value. The walk-out lower level serves as the heart of the home, offering a full kitchen, spacious living & gathering area, full bathroom, and a stunning new panoramic window that captures the natural beauty of the water and surrounding landscape. This layout is ideal for those who appreciate defined living spaces—perfect for hosting, relaxing, or creating a private retreat environment separate from sleeping quarters. Recent updates include a new lower-level shower and glass door. The property extends to the water, making it especially appealing for outdoor enthusiasts, hunters, and those seeking a peaceful escape. Being sold as-is, this home has already appraised near current pricing and presents a strong opportunity for buyers looking to personalize and enhance a waterfront property with significant upside. A rare chance to own land, water, & potential—wrapped into one. Situated on the scenic bluff of Sawyer Slough, adjacent to Marshall County State Conservation Area, placing miles of hiking, ATV trails & exceptional wildlife right at your doorstep!
