Unmatched privacy meets thoughtful updates in this stunning home, backing directly to Cathy Fromme Prairie Open Space - protected land that will never be developed, offering sweeping, unobstructed views and a peaceful backdrop you will not find elsewhere. Inside, soaring windows fill the vaulted family room with natural light and frame the open space beyond, centered around a striking double-sided brick fireplace that connects the living and family rooms. The kitchen has been refreshed with a new gas range, refrigerator, sink, faucet, disposal, and updated cabinetry - ready for everyday living and entertaining alike. The primary suite features an updated en-suite bath, and secondary bedrooms share a fully updated bath with dual sinks and tile finishes. The finished basement is a true showstopper: a remodeled full bathroom with tile, quartz vanity, new sink, and light fixture; a dedicated weight room; game room area; a stylish dry bar with beverage fridge and custom lighting; and an updated office with quartz counters. New LVP flooring runs throughout, complemented by new trim, baseboards, and stairs. Major mechanical upgrades bring peace of mind, including all-new HVAC system (AC and furnace), two 50-gallon water heaters, radon mitigation, and a whole-house fan. Step outside to a true entertainer's dream: a sprawling multi-level deck with a built-in fire pit and included hot tub, all overlooking the open space - perfect for sunset gatherings. The fully fenced backyard also features a basketball court and a kids' play set with low-maintenance rubber mulch, plus a storage shed, mature landscaping, and a full sprinkler system front and back. Oversized 3-car garage with built-in storage. A dedicated laundry room with cabinets, sink, and closet adds everyday convenience. With rare open-space privacy, resort-style outdoor living, and updates throughout - this is a home that truly cannot be replicated. WATCH the full cinematic video tour - linked under Virtual Tours.
