Description

The best of both worlds awaits. Nestled on the peaceful outskirts of Aurora, this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home gives you the breathing room of country living without giving up a single city convenience. Sitting on a generous 5 acres with the reliability of city water and sewer, this property is a rare find that checks every box. Room to live & entertain: The heart of the home is a spacious kitchen and dining room designed for gathering — whether it's a quiet weeknight dinner or a full family holiday spread. Natural flow between the kitchen and dining area makes entertaining effortless. Expand on your terms: The full basement is a blank canvas ready for your vision — think additional bedrooms, a family room, a home office, or a recreation space. The potential here is real, and the foundation is already done for you. For the hobbyist & the homebody: Car collectors, woodworkers, and hobbyists will love the massive 4-stall garage — room for vehicles, toys, tools, and projects of every size. Out back, a dedicated garden shed keeps your outdoor space organized, whether you're growing vegetables or storing seasonal gear. Five acres, zero rural headaches: Enjoy the open sky, the elbow room, and the quiet — all while staying connected to city utilities. No well to worry about, no septic to maintain. Just wide open land with all the infrastructure already in place. Call for a tour!
