Tucked away on a quiet country road, this expansive 4917 Wayside property in McHenry offers the space and flexibility so many people are looking for. Set on large, fully fenced acreage, it features a comfortable all-brick ranch-style home surrounded by open land, barns, sheds, storage and multiple paddocks--perfect for those who want room to spread out, work and keep animals or live the self-sustainable lifestyle. ***** A standout feature is the detached 3-car garage/workshop, designed with function in mind: it offers two 8-foot doors and one 10-foot door, giving you excellent clearance for trucks, equipment, trailers, or hobby use. Whether you're a contractor, car enthusiast, or just need serious storage and workspace, this building delivers. ***** The land itself is set up for all kinds of livestock, with paddocks and fencing already in place, making it easy to bring horses, goats, cattle, chickens or other animals. The sellers even have a peacock! At the opposite end of the property, you'll find a separate rental property, ideal for additional income, an onsite caretaker, or multi-generational living while still maintaining privacy and space between residences. ***** A rare opportunity to own this much usable land with existing infrastructure already in place-keep it as a working hobby farm, income property, or private country retreat.
