Experience serene country living in this stunning custom-built 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath home, nestled on a quiet luxury cul-de-sac just 2 miles east of Altoona. Thoughtfully designed and meticulously maintained, this home offers over 1.3 acres of beautifully landscaped space complete with irrigation, an underground pet fence, and backyard oasis. Inside, you’ll find elegant cherry woodwork, three fireplaces (two of which are real wood-burning), and a dedicated main-level office. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring granite countertops, walk in pantry, and a smart refrigerator that stays with the home. Upstairs, the spacious layout includes four bedrooms, highlighted by a luxurious primary suite with a jetted tub, expansive walk-in closet, and dressing area. Two bedrooms are connected via a convenient Jack and Jill bathroom. The finished basement is made for entertaining, boasting two fireplaces, a movie projector with screen, surround sound, a bar area, and the fifth bedroom. Step outside to your private outdoor paradise: relax by one of two fire pits, unwind in the gazebo, or enjoy summer fun in the above-ground pool with surrounding decking and hot tub. The generous back deck includes an awning, providing comfortable shade on sunny days. The roof is new -2024. Septic has been inspected, pumped, and repairs made to meet DNR requirements. This home truly has it all—comfort, style, and space in a peaceful, upscale setting. Don’t miss this opportunity!
