Property Description
Welcome to The Maker's Acre!! This is more than a home-it's a lifestyle and an opportunity. With 1.27 acres, towering oak trees, and a prime unincorporated location just minutes from downtown Oswego, this property was designed to spark imagination. Expand the home, add a pole building, showcase your business, grow gardens, or create a private retreat-The Maker's Acre invites you to think outside the box and make it your own. The home, built in 2021, offers quality finishes and cozy, thoughtful spaces. An open floor plan features solid surface floors, a gas fireplace, and patio doors that lead to a private deck overlooking the acreage. The retro-inspired kitchen with farmhouse sink and stylish cabinetry blends charm with function, while the luxury bath offers a spa-like escape with soaking tub and walk-in shower. The primary bedroom is inviting with its vaulted ceiling, and the second bedroom provides flexibility as a guest room, nursery, or home office. The true crown jewel is the finished 4-car garage-fully insulated, heated, cooled, with its own bathroom, painted floor, and French doors to a covered patio. Equipped with 50-amp electric service, it's workshop-ready and perfect for recreational vehicles, including Class A motorhomes and Fifth Wheels. Whether you're an RV traveler needing hookups, a hobbyist, or a small business owner, this space delivers. For those seeking multi-generational living or future income potential, the existing home can serve as a comfortable residence or guest quarters while you expand or build onto the property. Later, it could transition into a dedicated in-law space or rental opportunity (pending zoning approval). Country life in town. Vision, create, and build your future here-The Maker's Acre is waiting for you.
