Welcome to 255 E Prairie Street in beautiful Manhattan, Illinois! This custom-built 5-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home offers the perfect blend of space, style, and comfort with no HOA. Custom Built in 2003 and meticulously maintained, this move-in ready home features a bright and inviting layout filled with natural light, refinished hardwood floors, and thoughtful upgrades throughout. The main level boasts a living room, a powder room, a laundry room, a large foyer, a spacious family room with a cozy fireplace, a formal dining area, and an eat-in kitchen ideal for entertaining. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms while the finished basement adds two more bedrooms and another full bathroom -perfect for guests, a home office, or multi-generational living. Enjoy peace of mind with important updates including a new water heater and softener, new carpet, fresh paint in many rooms, a new basement ceiling and gutter guards. Tray ceilings add a touch of elegance, and the heated garage with epoxy floors and extra storage is a dream for any hobbyist. Plus, there's RV parking with a 30 AMP hookup right outside the garage and the alley in the back adds potential for adding another garage! Step outside to your private, fully fenced backyard oasis featuring a large concrete patio, storage shed, and a 24-foot pool with a deck and brand-new stairs added just in time for summer fun. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a truly turn-key home which just so happens to be the last home that locals "The Giants of Construction" built specially for their family.
