Rare opportunity to own a private acreage retreat with your own private/stocked pond, while remaining 10 minutes from downtown Woodstock with its array of dining choices, I-575, and The Outlet Shoppes! This exceptionally maintained four-sided brick ranch sits on over 6 acres and overlooks that beautiful 1.5-acre pond, offering peaceful water views from the front of the home. A long private driveway leads to the property, providing a quiet setting, ample parking, and a covered carport. The master-on-main floor plan features hardwood floors throughout, plantation shutters, and multiple living spaces including a keeping room, living room, open kitchen and dining area, and a bright all season room with windows and screens. The spacious laundry room includes extensive custom cabinetry and storage. The finished partial basement provides incredible flexibility with a full kitchen, full bath, and open living area-perfect for guests, a private suite, multi-generational living, or additional entertaining space. Outside, mature hardwood trees create exceptional privacy, while expansive front and backyard areas provide room for recreation, gardening, and gatherings. The property backs up to a horse farm, enhancing the peaceful country atmosphere. Enjoy the rare combination of acreage, privacy, pond views, and convenience-Originally built and occupied by a custom builder, a proud craftsman, who used quality materials throughout!
