This amazing home was custom built in 1974 for Vaughn and Ruth Jaenike at the end of Colony Lane. Vaughn was the Dean of Fine Arts at EIU for many years and he and Ruth loved to entertain their family and friends so the home was designed with that in mind. The focal point of the main level is the wonderful hanging fireplace in the “conversation pit” where you can enjoy a glass of wine and the real wood burning fireplace. The vaulted ceilings and an abundance of glass lets the natural light flow in and allows those inside to enjoy the wooded outdoor view. Upstairs you will find the master suite with a full bath and large walk-in closet and two additional bedrooms along with another full bath. The basement has a large family room, den/office room, and full bath. The home has decks on three sides and a nice outdoor seating area just off the kitchen. Recent improvements include roof, replacement windows and sliding doors, and one of the furnaces. Schedule a showing today, this one won’t last long.
