Welcome to your own slice of Midwest paradise. Nestled on 5 peaceful acres surrounded by open fields and a private pond, this well-maintained ranch home offers the kind of space, comfort, and country living that's becoming harder to find. Inside, discover a home designed for gathering. The heart of the home is a fantastic kitchen featuring solid surface countertops, soft-close cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and generous workspace for everything from weeknight dinners to holiday baking marathons. Just beyond, the oversized living room delivers room to truly spread out. In fact, the current owner comfortably fits four couches here, making it the ultimate space for movie nights, game days, family celebrations, or simply enjoying time together without feeling crowded. The expansive dining room is ready for whatever brings your people together. Epic game nights, crafting sessions, holiday feasts, birthday parties, homework projects, or Sunday dinners that stretch long into the evening. There's room for all of it, and then some. With three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a spacious mudroom, and an impressive (*checks notes*) eight closets, storage is never an afterthought. Downstairs, the dry basement has been professionally cared for with a Woods Basement waterproofing system, sump pump, and structural improvements, offering peace of mind along with even more usable space. The attached two-car garage provides additional convenience and storage. Outside is where the #countrylife truly shines. Imagine fishing on your own private pond, evenings spent watching sunsets melt across the surrounding fields, and weekends enjoying the freedom that comes with five acres of your own. The impressive 40' x 40' pole barn features both electricity and a concrete floor, making it ideal for hobbies, projects, equipment, workshop space, or storing all the toys that country living inspires. Adding to the appeal is a location within a school district that has earned a reputation for being small but mighty. Known for its small class sizes, wide variety of opportunities for students to explore their interests, and a strong sense of community, it's the kind of place where students are encouraged to participate, belong, and thrive. Solid, comfortable, and thoughtfully maintained, this is more than just a house. It's a place to spread out, slow down, and enjoy the simple pleasures of country living while staying connected to a close-knit community.
