Located on the western edge of Boone County, this custom-built retreat resting on 2.4 park-like acres in a coveted private subdivision. From the covered front porch to the lush grounds beyond, every detail of this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence reflects quality craftsmanship and a rare sense of privacy. Inside, 9-foot ceilings on the main floor create an airy, gracious feel across nearly 3,585 square feet. A formal living room and dining room set the stage, while the family room is anchored by the fireplace. The kitchen delivers both style and substance, featuring a functional center island and gleaming stainless appliances ready for the home chef. Retreat to the master suite, where French doors open to elegant tray ceilings and an adjoining bath outfitted with a soothing soaking tub and a separate shower. A large main-floor laundry room adds everyday ease, and solid six-panel doors lend refined character throughout. The amazing 5 plus attached garage adds lots of options for storage and workspace. Downstairs, the finished lower level offers partial exposure and impressive versatility, boasting a spacious rec room, a dedicated exercise room, and a rough-in already in place for a future bath. The true showstopper waits out back: a private paradise centered around a 14x28 saltwater pool with an automatic cover, outsdoor custom pavers and fireplace, pavillion and framed by mature trees and open space perfect for entertaining or quiet unwinding. The sunsets are beautiful. Blending timeless design, generous acreage, and resort-style living, this exceptional Rockford home is ready to welcome its next fortunate owner.
