This is the kind of property that simply does not come along often. Set on an incredible 13.8 private acres in the sought-after Whitewater school district, 287 Rising Star Rd combines the character of an established home with an extensive, top-to-bottom renovation-all surrounded by other beautiful homes on acreage where privacy and space are the standard. From the moment you arrive, this property feels different. A completely redone asphalt driveway, brand-new front fencing, and multiple access points to the acreage set the stage for a property with tremendous flexibility. And with NO HOA, you have the space and freedom that buyers looking for acreage rarely find this close to everyday conveniences. The home itself has been completely reimagined while intentionally preserving the character that makes it special. Nearly everything inside is new, with beautiful hardwoods throughout the main level, refreshed living spaces, a gorgeous kitchen, and an impressive oversized primary suite with a massive en-suite bath and closet. The improvements go far beyond cosmetics. The property features a new roof, new HVAC, new furnaces, new water heaters, new windows, new gutters, new chimney caps, and a new basement French drain system. The fully finished basement adds another level of usable living space perfect for entertaining, a home theater, gym, office, guest quarters, or simply room to spread out. And then there's the outdoor living. Step outside to a massive brand-new rear deck overlooking the acreage, or unwind on the screened-in porch surrounded by the peace and privacy of your own property. With nearly 14 acres around you, there is room to create something truly special. As if the main house weren't enough, the property also includes a detached two-car garage with a full ADU above it featuring two bedrooms, a full bathroom, and its own kitchen-an incredible setup for guests, extended family, a private home office, or multigenerational living. 13.8 acres. Whitewater schools. No HOA. Multiple property access points. A completely renovated main residence. Finished basement. Detached two-car garage. Two-bedroom ADU. Massive new deck. Screened porch. Privacy. Properties that check this many boxes are exceptionally hard to find. 287 Rising Star Rd isn't just another renovated home-it's the rare opportunity to have the acreage, privacy, flexibility, character, and modern updates buyers typically have to compromise between, all in one property.
