Tucked among the trees on nearly 2.7 breathtaking acres, this one-of-a-kind property feels more like a private woodland sanctuary than a home. This beautiful split-level offers the perfect blend of peaceful country living and convenient access to town.
Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings and an incredible wall of windows create a stunning “treehouse” atmosphere, bringing the outdoors in from nearly every angle. Mornings are filled with birdsong and peaceful wooded views that feel more like a vacation retreat than everyday life. Natural light pours throughout the home, creating a warm, comfortable feel in every season.
This 4-bedroom, 3-bath home offers spacious living areas, a finished lower level, and an abundance of thoughtfully designed storage throughout. Outdoor living is just as special, with a huge deck, patio, fire pit area, mature trees, prairie landscaping, and frequent wildlife sightings.
Additional highlights include a heated two-car garage with custom storage, a heated and air-conditioned outbuilding perfect for hobbies or a workshop, healthier boiler heat, whole-house fan, attic storage, above-ground pool, and extra parking.
Located in the highly desirable SEP School District, this rare property offers privacy, beauty, and a lifestyle that feels worlds away—while still being just minutes from town.
