Exceptional Five-Plus-Acre Setting | Four Bedrooms | Extensive Recent Improvements | Picturesque Pond and Waterfall Discover an exceptional opportunity to own a beautifully situated four-bedroom home on more than five acres in the highly desirable Galena Territory. Encompassing two original lots, this distinctive property offers an appealing combination of privacy, natural beauty, generous living spaces, and substantial recent improvements. Whether envisioned as a full-time residence, a relaxing weekend retreat, or a gathering place for family and friends, this home captures the charm and tranquility of country living. One of the property’s most outstanding features is its expansive setting of more than five acres, providing a wonderful sense of space and seclusion. The beautifully landscaped grounds are enhanced by a picturesque decorative pond and waterfall, creating a peaceful outdoor environment that complements the surrounding natural beauty. The waterfall has been seasonally shut down in preparation for the approaching winter months and can be enjoyed again with the return of warmer weather. The combination of two original lots, generous acreage, and attractive landscaping makes this property particularly appealing. Inside, the home offers four plus bedrooms and comfortable, spacious living areas designed to accommodate both everyday living and entertaining. The inviting interior provides ample room for family members and guests, while the screened porch offers an ideal setting to relax, enjoy the fresh air, and appreciate the peaceful surroundings without the intrusion of insects. A particularly noteworthy aspect of this property is the extensive investment the owners have made in improvements and maintenance over the past several years. These updates contribute significantly to the home’s appearance, comfort, and long-term enjoyment. Improvements completed in 2023 include attractive and durable Diamond Kote exterior siding, replacement of glass in more than 15 windows, updated carpeting, installation of Kohler toilets, and rescreening of the screened porch. These improvements have enhanced both the exterior appearance and interior comfort of the residence. In 2024, the kitchen received a new range and microwave, providing updated appliances for everyday convenience. Improvements completed in 2025 include installation of a new furnace and air-conditioning system serving the west side of the residence, along with skylights and replacement of the primary bathroom roof ridge cap. In 2026, the owners continued their improvements with the addition of a new kitchen trash compactor. Collectively, these substantial improvements reflect the owners’ ongoing attention to the property and provide meaningful value to prospective purchasers. Beyond the residence itself, ownership in The Galena Territory provides access to an outstanding collection of recreational amenities. Residents can enjoy the scenic 220-acre Lake Galena, the Owners’ Club facilities, indoor and outdoor swimming, fitness facilities, tennis, pickleball, and miles of trails through the beautiful rolling countryside. Golf enthusiasts will appreciate the nearby championship golf courses associated with Eagle Ridge Resort & Spa, while historic downtown Galena offers exceptional dining, shopping, entertainment, and year-round activities. 29 Cedar Rim Drive represents a distinctive opportunity to enjoy the best of Galena Territory living. With its four-bedroom residence, more than five acres encompassing two original lots, picturesque pond and waterfall, screened porch, extensive recent improvements, and access to outstanding recreational amenities, this property offers an exceptional combination of natural beauty, comfort, privacy, and lifestyle.
