Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this inviting ranch home with a finished walk-out lower level offers the perfect blend of comfort, privacy, and natural beauty. Set on a wooded 1.66-acre lot, the property boasts a serene backdrop of mature trees, creating a true sense of seclusion. Inside, you’ll find a welcoming main level with an open living room, dining area, and kitchen featuring granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. Two bedrooms and a full bath complete the main floor. The finished walk-out lower level significantly expands the living space, featuring a large open family room with a wood-burning stove, a full bath, and a spacious third bedroom area (non-conforming due to window), offering flexibility for guests, a home office, or additional sleeping space. The lower level also includes the laundry area and direct access to the outdoors. Recent mechanical updates include a high-efficiency gas furnace (2021), new water heater (2018), and a whole-house water filtration system—adding comfort and peace of mind for the next owner. The septic system is sized for a 4-bedroom home, providing future potential. Enjoy morning coffee or evening relaxation surrounded by nature, with the peace and quiet that comes from being at the end of a dead-end lane. Ownership includes access to The Galena Territory’s extensive amenities—lake, pools, trails, and recreation centers—all within minutes of Eagle Ridge Resort & Spa and historic downtown Galena. Sold as-is.
