A-1 Zoning grandfathered from a time when building was not so constrictive, this land offers an opportunity to build your custom home in an area that is surrounded by Illinois conservation land, custom home subdivisions and farmland with natural views. Seller says that they would be open to holding the mortgage. Lincoln Road is a rural road that provides an instant access to main arterial routes such as Route 12 and Route 59 and Route 120, but is far enough off of the beaten path to escape from the busy life, while McHenry's shopping and nightlife venues are just west on Lincoln Road to Route 31. Agent can provide you with a hydric soil map, and because the land is partially in a flood zone and wetland area, the soils may need to be altered to accommodate all the buildings you may be seeking. Pole barns or barndominiums, or a ranch home may be great alternatives to this site. With proper planning and developing, this property offers plenty of acreage with uninterrupted private views of nature surrounding the property. With a berm and canopy tree and shrub plantings, a well positioned land to ride motocross or ATV use, or a simple preserve of your own. Come have a look but do not walk the property without permission. Have your agent call today to set a time. I would be happy to meet you at this site and show you the corner stakes to identify the size and possibilities of this property.
