Rare opportunity in Plainfield North Schools to own an airstrip estate nestled on 5 acres. A private piece of the country, current homeowners have thoughtfully maintained and improved this expansive property with a new roof in 2021, new SS kitchen appliances, washer & dryer, a new bay window in the lower living area welcomes ample sunlight, new flooring in the upstairs bedrooms & new hall carpet. Previous wallpaper was removed from the kitchen & trending paneling added- the exposed beam and open floorplan allow for the definition of space while creating a lodge-like feel. Home will feel more like a get-a-way from life's tiring realities; sip a morning cup of coffee on your private balcony off the owner's bedroom or out on the two tiered expansive deck. Unique and charming define the owner's suite as you enter through the custom cherry double doors, with the brick fireplace (gas starter), private balcony, and the loft - great office space or add an additional third closet to the bedroom! The private bath showcases an additional custom closet (closet by design systems), separate vanity areas & remodeled bath with a walk-in shower. A new split a/c unit was added to the owners suite for additional comfort and easily cools with the touch of a remote. There is no limit for space with three bedrooms, three full baths and three living/sitting areas- easily use the lower level as a gym, home office or playroom. Two fireplaces are showcased in this property to extend the retreat like feeling. Additional improvements including professional treatment in the crawl of cracks, house dehumidifier, recessed lighting installed, new front storm door, google security system and an abundance of electrical added as the front drive is a warm welcome home with the addition of 8 new lamp posts. Exterior lighting in the back of the property was added for peace of mind as the 5 acre parcel includes a zero fence with three dog collars. The deck, garage, hanger and property are truly the showstoppers for this estate. The expansive deck running the length of nearly the entire back of the house welcomes all friends, family and neighbors for 4th of July fireworks, holiday parties or an evening alone under the stars! Watch the neighboring planes take off into the sunset along the private airstrip- or take your own plane and soar to new heights. Oversized concrete pad was just poured for the hanger apron with an additional tier installed for a hot tub to be added off the deck. The joined garage and hanger are owed generous consideration, whether you've dreamed about having your own workshop, outdoor living space, or use truly for plane storage, the new hydraulic door opens the ENTIRE back of the hanger - no manually cranking doors- with the press of a remote, the entire space opens to scenic views! (Fantastic security feature as well as an access door was thoughtfully considered in the install). Nearly the entire attic of the garage is planked- ready for all your storage needs- or even consider finishing the space! Additional fruit trees (9 apple trees, 2 peach trees and 1 plum tree) along with an expansive garden and even a golf set up- this home is a hole in one! This show stopping 5 acre brick estate has been meticulously maintained inside and out ready for a new homeowner to make it their own!
