What's special
Meticulously renovated and remodeled 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath contemporary retreat with Jo Daviess County Guest Accommodations License, perched on a beautifully landscaped .97-acre homesite in The Galena Territory and offering sweeping elevated vistas that stretch across the rolling countryside and scenic beauty beyond. Completely transformed from top to bottom, this exceptional property combines modern design, quality craftsmanship, and resort-style amenities, all just moments from the Owners’ Club and Lake Galena. The light-filled main level welcomes with soaring cathedral ceilings, expansive windows that frame the breathtaking views, rich flooring, and an open-concept layout ideal for gathering and entertaining. Spacious living room flows seamlessly into the dining area and out to an expansive composite deck with aluminum railing where miles of panoramic scenery provide the perfect backdrop for outdoor dining, relaxation, and unforgettable sunsets. Beautifully updated kitchen features custom Amish-crafted cabinetry, granite countertops, black stainless appliances including a gas range, farmhouse sink, pantry, and direct access to the attached two-car garage. Also on the main level are a comfortable guest bedroom, a nicely appointed full bath, and access to the covered front porch (with electrical for adding a hot tub) and stunning paver patio complete with fire pit, surrounded by mature trees, abundant wildlife, and a peaceful wooded setting. Upstairs, the generous primary suite offers a private balcony-style deck overlooking the dramatic views, creating the perfect place for morning coffee or evening stargazing, while the luxurious bath showcases granite-topped vanity, subway tile surround shower, and stylish finishes. An additional guest bedroom completes the upper level. The walkout lower level is designed for recreation and entertainment, featuring an expansive family room with wet bar, game area with pool table and foosball, convenient half bath, and oversized laundry/utility room with abundant storage that connects to a second two-car garage, providing an impressive total four-car capacity for vehicles, recreational equipment, workshop space, or additional entertainment possibilities. Extensive renovations during current ownership tenure include newer updates to electrical, plumbing, HVAC, drywall, flooring, trim, doors, windows, insulated garage doors, lighting, custom stair railings, granite surfaces, SmartSide siding, composite decking, paver patios and retaining walls, upgraded septic system, landscaping, and more, creating a turnkey property that feels virtually new throughout. Currently operating as a short-term rental and offered fully furnished, this remarkable retreat is ideally located just around the corner from the Owners’ Club amenities, minutes from the newly constructed Lake Galena Marina, and a short drive to Eagle Ridge Resort & Spa’s 63 holes of championship golf, Stonedrift Spa, restaurants, trails, and all the recreational opportunities The Galena Territory has to offer. A rare opportunity to own a fully renovated, income-producing getaway with spectacular views, modern comforts, and an unbeatable resort-style location.
