Description
Charming home situated on over a half-acre with views of Big Cicero Creek, rolling hills, and woods - country living yet close to all your major amenities! Completely gutted and rebuilt in 2019, this beautifully remodeled home offers the perfect blend of comfort, space, and flexibility. The thoughtfully updated single-story layout features four bedrooms with a split-bedroom design - two on each side - creating privacy and versatility for families, guests, multi-generational living, or work-from-home. Nearly every major system has been replaced: new well (2015), new roof (2018), new floors (2025), and in 2026 - new kitchen, new water heater, water softener, bladder tank, new doors, soffit, gutters, and exterior paint. Prior to closing: new A/C, new furnace, all bedrooms painted white, and yard graded and seeded. Truly move-in ready with one-level living in a peaceful rural setting. See the attached update summary for the full list of improvements.
