Tucked away on a beautifully wooded setting just outside the Marion Country Club neighborhood, this one-of-a-kind custom home offers the perfect balance of peaceful country living and everyday convenience. Set on over 2.6 scenic acres with a creek winding through the entire property, you'll feel miles away from it all while remaining just minutes from shopping, dining, State Route 4, and US Route 23. Inside, soaring cathedral ceilings and a stunning floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace create an unforgettable great room, while the loft above adds character and flexibility. The custom kitchen features maple cabinetry, Corian countertops, and picturesque backyard views, making it the perfect place to gather. The first-floor primary suite offers comfortable single-level living along with first floor laundry, while two additional bedrooms and a full bath are located upstairs. The finished walkout lower level opens directly to the patio overlooking the creek, creating an ideal space for entertaining or simply enjoying the sounds of nature. Outside, you'll find mature landscaping, a large garden area, and plenty of room to explore your own private retreat. Additional highlights include a durable metal roof, 2x6 exterior wall construction, hardwood floors, skylights, first-floor laundry, and thoughtful craftsmanship throughout. This is a rare opportunity to enjoy the serenity of the countryside without sacrificing quick access to everything Marion has to offer.
