Every once in a while, a property comes along that feels less like a home… and more like the lifestyle people spend years hoping to find. Tucked gently atop 4.5+/- beautifully manicured acres with sweeping views of open farmland, this stunning brick residence offers the kind of peace, privacy, and flexibility that’s becoming increasingly rare to find — especially while still being conveniently positioned between Hwy 61 and Hwy 79 for an easy commute back toward the city. From the moment you pull up the gravel drive, there’s an unmistakable sense of arrival. Mature landscaping, meticulously maintained grounds, and the stately brick veneer exterior immediately set the tone for what’s inside. Step through the front door and you’re welcomed into a warm, inviting living space filled with natural light pouring through Anderson windows and skylights above. Vaulted ceilings with a striking center beam create an open, airy feel, while the gas log fireplace anchors the room with the perfect touch of comfort and character. The kitchen was designed for both gathering and functionality, featuring granite countertops, breakfast bar seating, walk-in pantry storage, stainless appliances, and seamless flow into the main living areas. Whether it’s slow mornings with coffee overlooking the countryside or hosting family and friends for the holidays, this home simply lives well. Vinyl plank flooring runs throughout much of the main level, blending durability with timeless style, while thoughtful details like solid wood core doors, attic fan ventilation, central vac, and main floor laundry with utility sink reflect the level of care poured into the property over the years. The primary suite feels like its own private retreat, complete with pocket doors, walk-in closet, staging area, and an updated bath that creates a relaxing escape at the end of the day. Downstairs, the finished walkout lower level dramatically expands the usable living space with soaring ceilings, ceramic tile flooring, full bath, additional laundry area, workshop space, and a second gas fireplace that creates the perfect setting for entertaining, hobbies, extended stays, or multi-generational flexibility. But what truly separates this property from almost anything else on the market is what waits outside. Imagine evenings spent on the partially covered composite deck watching sunsets fall across rolling fields. Summer gatherings stretched across the massive patio space. Quiet mornings with nothing but the sounds of nature surrounding you. And for the buyer needing more than just a home — the detached pole barn/shop opens the door to endless opportunity. With concrete floors, oversized access doors, electric, water, insulated workspace potential, and air compressor setup already in place, it’s perfectly suited for a home business, hobbyist workspace, storage for toys and equipment, or simply the freedom to create something uniquely yours. This isn’t just another rural listing. It’s the kind of property buyers wait years to see hit the market — a turnkey country estate that combines comfort, utility, craftsmanship, and lifestyle into one unforgettable setting.
