6 Bedroom House in Marengo

This newly renovated, 7,000 sf Tudor country estate is in Marengo near Woodstock and Harvard, and is only 35 minutes from Lake Geneva. It’s an outdoor paradise with lots to do, and the sprawling house with its charming blend of vintage and log cabin decor offers 6 bedrooms, 4 full baths, 10 beds altogether (2 Kings, 4 Queens, 1 full, 1 twin, 1 single Murphy bed and 1 double sofa bed) and sits on 28 partially wooded acres with 2 aerated ponds, one stocked with fish, 2 kayaks and a 4 seat paddle boat, 15 acres of wooded hiking trails, huge grassy areas for picnics, baseball and other sports, 3 electric bikes and a golf cart. Behind the house is a 1 acre, fenced-in dog park/woods. 2 huge master bedrooms on the second floor both have balconies and attached bathrooms which boast Jacuzzis and separate showers. There is a bedroom with a log cabin Queen bed and attached full bath on the main floor for those who don’t like stairs. Another full bath waits in the downstairs recreation area: a high ceiling walk out basement with a huge bar, 9 barstools and a large screen TV, a table and chairs, swivel chairs and a sofa couch with a TV projector and 10 foot screen, electric dart board and a huge bedroom with mirrored closets and 2 queen beds. Kids will love the full and twin log cabin beds situated in a 3rd floor loft with its own TV. In fact, each bedroom has a TV, as does one of the two 4 car garages (we subscribe to Dog TV) used as an enclosed dog recreation area with 5 dog beds and 2 large kennels, a/c and heat, a dog wash station and a doggie door leading out to an 6 x 12 ft enclosed dog relief area with yet another door leading out to the fenced in dog woods. We close this door at night. The updated, modern kitchen hosts all new appliances: an air fryer, a deep fryer, a bread machine, a blender, 2 toasters, a Breville espresso machine, a pressure cooker, a hot pot, 2 ovens, a 6 burner stove, a microwave and a long table that seats 10, as well as a butcher block island that seats three. Wrap around wooden decks in both the front and back yards lead onto 2 gazebos with dining tables. A third gazebo with a table and four chairs sits next to the big pond several hundred feet from the house, and the basement doors in the huge rec room lead out to a patio with two fire pits beneath a pergola overlooking the small pond. Patio furniture, a bbq grill, rocking chairs and benches adorn all the decks and patios in the Summer and Fall. A large firepit sits in the 4 acre backyard encircled by 6 adirondack chairs, end tables and 2 benches. The backyard gazebo has a fireplace, as does the living room and master bedroom. There is also an office with a computer, printer and a large round dining table. Yet another huge bedroom with a king sized bed on the 2nd floor has been made into an art studio with a wide assortment of art materials, paper, canvases, etc for grown ups and children, easels, tables and chairs and benches, as well as a sitting area with couch and big screen TV. This room has two balconies. It leads down to the garage so it offers a private entrance and exit. From the garage you can also access the basement with a large laundry room, a washer and dryer, iron and ironing board and a steam wrinkle remover, along with a microwave oven and sink. Dogs are welcome so long as they remain in the dog garage, dog woods or outdoor areas. You can leave them for hours at a time in the enclosed dog quarters with access to the 2 acre outdoor dog park.

Summary: This house was exceptional! From the price, to the amount of bedrooms/space, to the distance/Location, amenities, the exceptionally Large backyard, even down to having enough parking for our cars – my Large family and I greatly appreciate finding this gem and had a great weekend! We are saving this home as a favorite for our future family gatherings. Although we didn’t use the paddle boat, our 1-year-old babies to our 85-year-old grandparents had a blast! A Walmart only being a 10-minute drive away, was also very convenient. Thank you Marcie for loaning your home to us without any issues this past weekend! So sweet.

Summary: Kids were disappointed there were no fish in the pond but they enjoyed the kayak and paddle boat. They also loved the electric bikes. House is stately for sure. So many rooms you could get lost. Huge master suite!! Definitely big enough for our family get together.

Summary: Great property and amazing house! Easily fit our large group of 15 with room to spare. Hosts were very responsive and easy to contact. Would definitely recommend and would stay again!

Summary: We were blessed with beautiful weather to enjoy all of the outdoor space and activities that this beautiful home offers. The grandkids enjoyed the paddle boat, kayaks,catching frogs in the frog pond, swimming, and fishing from the dock. The golf cart was perfect for them to explore the paths in the woods and to ride on the long driveway. The house is very spread out so we never seemed to be on top of each other. The outside seating provided a variety of options. The gazebo with the fireplace was a favorite place for the older kids to set and eat. I enjoyed the front gazebo with the beautiful view! We took a large amount of food to cook with and never left the place except to go to church. PS. The owner is a fantastic artist!!!

Summary: The property is a gem. We wished the weather was better so we could enjoy time outside however the briskness of fall had arrived. We were constrained to the inside of the house which is very artistic with an interesting layout. The house was a bit tricky for the amount of guests we had for privacy. There were about 10 of us however two of the bathrooms did not have doors. Although these bathrooms have an extremely beautiful views, the missing doors were an issue. The only other problem were all the rugs. We have some seniors in our group and the shag rugs were causing some tripping. We placed some of the rugs on the side while we had our stay. Not a big deal. The only other issue or improvement we had were last minute instructions on what to do with our laundry and dishes etc..I wished she had left those "to do" on the instructions for the house upon arrival instead of given the morning of departure. Luckily we already accomplished those tasks so it was not an issue for timing. Even with these minor troubles, we had an enjoyable time in this home. It is on a magnificent piece of property. We have memories and stories that will last a lifetime and for that, we are extremely grateful.

Summary: Excellently stocked kitchen, the best by far in any rental we've stayed to date! We are a large group of friends who get together once a year to hang out, cook, and craft together, so this house was extremely well-suited to us. Lovely grounds, spacious bedrooms, and very communicative host! I recommend this location to any large group. As a note, the house is very open-concept and sound travels easily from bottom to top - just a note in case travelling with sensitive sleepers!

Summary: Had a guys golfing getaway.. house was perfect. There was 16 of us, and had plenty of space. Hope to rent annually
Bill H. Aug 24, 2023 11:14:34 PM
Summary: We property was amazing. The special touches that Marcie created throughout the house made our visit special. We have been gathering in large houses for the past 14 years. This was the best so far.
