Calling all nature lovers!! Beautiful landscaped setting with 2 decks looking over a wooded area close to Lake Decatur. In fact there are 2 decks with an attached "We" shed to enjoy those parties with family and friends and that's just the outside! Inside you will find a freshly remodeled 4 season room, a remodeled (2023) kitchen, fresh paint, 2 full baths, 2 living rooms, and all 3 bedrooms upstairs away from the party for more privacy. This reverse bi-level has the kitchen in the lower level but the best part is, it walks out to the driveway so you don't have to even use the steps to come in. Close to ADM, schools, The Devon, shopping, and Adventure Park. It also has a huge, heated 2.5 car garage with plenty of room for 2 cars and a workshop area. Don't miss out on this one!
