4464 River Rd, Cherry Valley, IL 61016

Rare opportunity to own a historic home in an idyllic setting! This is the first time that the "John Brown Broom Corn Farmhouse" will be available for sale to the public since since 1861. This original sixteen room farmhouse sits on a hill overlooking a scenic curve of River Rd just outside of the Village of Cherry Valley. The reason it has so many rooms is that it housed the workers for the Broom Corn Farm. The original farm was almost one thousand acres and this 2.66 acre farmette is the last piece of it. This home has been maintained for years but has not been updated recently.
