About This Home

Country oasis meets suburban convenience - welcome to Wadsworth. Tucked on 1.55 peaceful acres with a classic mid-century ranch aesthetic, 40798 Forest View offers the rare blend of wide-open space and easy access to everything the Chicago-Milwaukee corridor has to offer. A grape arbor, two patios, a rock wall with built-in power, and a charming two-level barn set the scene for a lifestyle that feels a world away - without actually being one. Step inside to find warm hardwood floors, a bluestone entry, and a kitchen dressed in hardwood dovetail maple cabinetry with granite countertops and a newer high-end dishwasher. The living room features beautiful built-ins and a spacious over-stair closet that's as clever as it is functional. Three comfortable bedrooms on the main floor share a generous bath with original lavender fixtures - a nod to the home's mid-century soul - alongside a nearly new Safe Step walk-in shower/tub. The finished basement expands your options dramatically: ceramic tile floors, a second full bath, laundry, and a massive bonus room easily called a fourth bedroom. The two-and-a-half car garage boasts epoxy floors with a drain and a full workbench - a dream for hobbyists and tinkerers alike. A newer roof and updated systems round out this well-loved retreat. Whether you're dreaming of chickens in the barn, harvesting grapes from the arbor, or simply spreading out on land that's truly yours - this is your country escape without giving up your ZIP code.
