"Spring Hollow" an isolated and gorgeous 25 acre wooded property in central McHenry County is available for the first time in almost a century. With a forest of oak, maple and walnut trees, cold and crystal clear springs that feed a fast-flowing brook, and an unmatched profusion of wildflowers, the property is unique in N. Illinois, yet sits only 60 miles NW of Chicago. The rambling, comfortable house rides atop a crest overlooking the valley below. Two fireplaces provide gathering spots in winter and the large, multi-level deck extends among the trees and offers majestic views. A visitor following one of the paths through "Spring Hollow" experiences the glories of nature in a landscape that's much as it was when the first settlers arrived in the early 1800's. The property - home of the first conservation easements in IL - has been preserved and managed by family owners and professional conservationists. The Boone Creek nature preserve abuts the land on the east, where a 200-year-old burr oak "Witness Tree' that figures into the first maps of the region still stands guard along one fence line. "Spring Hollow" offers beauty, peace and privacy. It is very doubtful that anything like it is on the market. Take the virtual tour and then come out to walk this beautiful preserve.
