Fabulous two-story house on a large corner lot with a wonderful three-car garage in the Tri-Valley school district! Beautiful living room at the front of the house that flows seamlessly into the formal dining room. The kitchen has all of its appliances and also has a wonderful built-in desk area. You'll also enjoy discovering the oversized pantry in the kitchen. The back of the home features a cozy family room with a gas fireplace and access to the back patio. The yard is incredible; it's almost half an acre! The large laundry room, with the washer and dryer that will stay, completes the main level. Then head upstairs to find three nice-sized bedrooms, including the primary that features a separate room off of it that has served as a 4th bedroom for the current owner. A door from the hallway could be created for this separated space to give it a private entry and create an official 4th bedroom. Both of the full bathrooms upstairs, one in the primary and one in the hallway, are spacious, and each offers a tub. There is an extensive list of updates as well, including: new AC 2025, new garage doors 2025, new opener on double door 2025, new roof 2022, new microwave and dishwasher 2025, and 2 new EV chargers in the garage 2025. Exterior has Permanent lights that can be changed and operated with an app on your phone! This house is conveniently less than a mile from Tri-Valley schools. This corner lot on the cul-de-sac in the heart of Downs lets you feel as if you are a million miles away, but offers a quick drive to I-74 and to both Bloomington and Leroy.
