Description

As you pull in the circular drive to this spectacular country estate, you'll reflexively take a deep breath. Approaching the south-facing entrance of this custom-built home, you'll pause to take in the 360-degree views of mature trees and rolling terrain and listen to the sound of the wind, birds, and...peace & quiet. Serenity extends into the front entryway as you glimpse the vaulted ceiling of the great room, while passing the sun-filled dining room. Next you see the open staircase leading upstairs, the gas fireplace flanked by extra large windows, and ample space for family lounging. Turning to your right, you enter the primary suite featuring a bay window, beautifully appointed ensuite bath with double sinks, large tub and glass door shower, and huge walk in closet. Continuing back through the great room, you see another bay window dining area before stepping into the spacious kitchen. Custom silver oak cabinetry, peninsula eating area, high-end appliances and pantry. Laundry room, a second full bath, an office/bedroom space and the 3-car garage/man cave with full kitchen round off the first floor. Upstairs you'll find an ensuite bedroom with 6x11 closet; and two bedrooms sharing a jack & jill bathroom. What's behind door number 4? A massive bonus room that extends the length of the garage! Also, the walk-out basement, featuring two bay windows and potential bedroom, is drywalled with a stubbed-in full bathroom awaiting your finishing touches. In-law apartment, guest quarters, exercise room, entertaining space? In addition to ample storage, the 9-foot high basement has a separate mechanical room (including panel for adding a generator). Stepping outside the double doors into the expansive private backyard, you'll see the potential for patio space, play areas for children and pets as well as how the future addition of a deck off the kitchen above will offer all-season enjoyment of your outdoor sanctuary. Continuing up the hill and around the garage, you might catch a glimpse of the stream that winds through the property before you come to a small barn with a larger barn beyond. Inside the circle drive is a garden shed with 200 amp service and a RV cement pad with 50 amp service. A pond on the far west side of the property is accessible via an electric livestock gate (cows are presently in the fenced pastures). Every box is checked for peaceful country living, yet you're only 10 minutes from Ottawa's shopping, schools and recreational opportunities.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from February 28, 2025

    "Need a vehicle to access most areas of Ottawa. Walking is an option, due to many sidewalks. Ottawa is limited because of only one bridge crossing the Illinois River. The Northeast side of town (where the High School located) is also limited because of only 2 ways in and out. Currently it has only 1 way due to construction. "

    "There’s a lot of other dogs so if your dog doesn’t like other dogs just be careful. Everyone picks up after there animals pretty well and most of the dogs are nice. A lot of them end up being aggressive with your dog but other than that it’s a lovely place for your dog. "

    "Location cannot be beat. Lovely area filled with unique styles of homes. Not a cookie-cutter development. Quiet, peaceful and friendly. Great mix of people of all ages. Well maintained homes make the North side a sought after location. Believe it or not, there are people who actually did not know this area of Ottawa exists. Close enough to the downtown area if you choose to take a nice walk to the riverfront. Good caring neighbors. Cannot emphasize enough how nice and tranquil it is in this area. Great School District, close to all churches and Ottawa Regional Hospital and Medical Center. Definately a lovely place to live. "
