This is more than a country classic -- it's a 1994 build wrapped in the charm of a turnofthecentury rustic retreat. Resting on 6.25 acres where nature abounds and wooded trails lead you to complete privacy and tranquility, this 1,895 sq ft ranch offers 3 large bedrooms and 2.5 baths all on the main level. A gracious foyer welcomes you into a sunfilled living room with exaggerated ceilings, gleaming hardwoods and a beautiful wood burner with brick backdrop as the focal point. The living room flows into the gourmet kitchen, featuring abundant cabinetry, highend stainless steel appliances, solidsurface counters, custom backsplash, and a butcherblock island. The kitchen opens to the dining room with a picturesque view of the expansive deck and the great outdoors, while a mainfloor laundry/mudroom and walkin pantry add everyday convenience. On the opposite wing, you'll find the 2003 primary suite addition with vaulted ceilings, a walkin closet, and a private bath with double vanity -- more than a bedroom, it's truly a retreat. Two additional large bedrooms with walkin closets and a full hall bath complete the main level. The dry unfinished basement is perfect for future expansion or abundant storage, complemented by an attached 2car garage, separate 1car garage, shed, and storage hut. Notable improvements include central A/C installed in 2026, a water heater replaced in 2023, a roof updated in 2019, and a wholehouse generator for added peace of mind. Located in the New Prairie School District, this is a rare opportunity to own your own slice of country paradise.
