Property Description
Welcome to Kerlin Schoolhouse! This historic stone cottage was built in 1870 and was once a one-room schoolhouse. Kerlin Schoolhouse is a slice of heaven in the countryside - located on a half-acre lot and completely surrounded by fields, providing a peaceful & quiet setting. The location boasts beautiful country views for miles, unobstructed sunrise and sunset viewing, as well as the dark skies for stargazing. Kerlin Schoolhouse features one bedroom (loft), one bathroom, a double detached garage, and large living spaces. Kerlin Schoolhouse is being sold completely furnished - simply move right in, or continue running as a successful Airbnb! (Special Use Permit for short-term rentals was granted by Stephenson County zoning in 2021). The cottage was completely renovated in 2021, including all new vinyl plank flooring, garage roof, insulation, all appliances, and much more. Built to last, with limestone walls nearly 2 feet thick, a metal roof, and low maintenance stone exterior. Kerlin Schoolhouse features a small footprint and low cost of living. The stone cottage was equipped with high-speed wifi internet, but was also recently wired for fiber optic. Now is your chance to grab your slice of heaven in the countryside!
