This spacious, lovingly-maintained one-owner home is truly a showstopper! With a beautiful all-brick/stone exterior and the private, peaceful setting you’ve been dreaming of, this property is just minutes from Quincy shopping and located in the Quincy Public School District. The home, built in 1990, features many great locations for family and friends to make memories and offer hospitality in its 3196 finished sq. ft. (1794 sq. ft. main floor, 1402.5 sq. ft. finished walkout basement,) and spacious attached 3 seasons screened room, large deck, and abundant outdoor spaces.

The large professionally landscaped lot includes mature pecan trees and enjoys privacy on all sides thanks to woods, tall evergreens, and rolling fields. The two-car attached garage has an additional shelved storage room. The long concrete driveway is two-car-width and leads to stamped concrete sidewalks and patio. The property also features an Amish-built shed. The additional lot features an Amish-built outbuilding and a large garden area with its own water hydrant and electric.

Main floor features a 18’ vaulted ceiling and lots of natural light. The remodeled kitchen with custom-built Concord cabinets, granite countertops, gas range, and stainless steel appliances is open to the adjoining dining room. Kitchen and dining room have hardwood floors. Master suite features a half bath with custom cabinet and granite countertop, lots of closet space, and French door access to the walkout deck leading down to a sprawling perennial garden. The 1/2 bath walk-in closet retains capped water lines and could easily be converted back to shower/tub or main floor laundry. Two additional main floor bedrooms and a closeted front office (potentially 4th bedroom or nursery) with bay window each provide gorgeous views of the outdoors. Main floor bath has more custom cabinets and a granite countertop as well as a tile walk-in shower with full glass doors.

Basement provides even more room to spread out in the large family room which opens through French doors to another stamped concrete patio with jacuzzi hookups, as well as great gathering spaces in the dining area and at the bar with its expansive cabinets (formerly full kitchen). You'll love this separate but open layout for living and entertaining. Another full bath and two rooms with large closets (currently used as a bedroom and exercise room) add more options for making this space your own. Utility/laundry room has geothermal HVAC system and has a <5-year Water Furnace. The home’s water is furnished by its own dependable well, but Mill Creek Water hookup is accessible should a future owner wish to tie in to a service provider. An automatic whole-house gas generator provides peace of mind and comfort when inclement weather leaves the community without power.

This is the unicorn of a home you’ve been looking for: beautiful, quality, spacious, and conveniently located with acreage and privacy minutes from town. Don’t miss this opportunity!
