5728 Ethelwin Avenue

White Pine Trail, Archival Brewing, and the best fries ever at the Vestal Inn are all a few minutes' stroll from the front door of this 1947 Belmont farmhouse in Rockford Schools. Three-quarters of an acre, with mature trees, a deck, and a covered patio for outdoor gatherings. Hosting is easy inside and out: the updated kitchen (quartz island, deep single-basin sink, real storage) opens to the dining space and three-season room. Remember the conversation pits of the '60s? Same spirit here, with plenty of spots to land, linger, and actually talk. Bonus conversation topic: utility bills. Everyone's complaining about theirs. The utilities here? A legitimate brag. Newer roof (2024), AC and furnace (2022), and basement waterproofing round out big-ticket updates. Two-stall garage, spacious living room, three bedrooms (primary on the main), two full baths, ample storage, and a main-floor office or fourth bedroom complete a property as practical as it is light-filled and welcoming. Come see!
