About This Home

As of February 2025

Clean, well-kept, and absolutely charming 3 bed, 2 bath ranch with detached two car garage nestled amidst the trees in a park-like setting and located in the heart of The Galena Territory near Owners' Club and Lake Galena. Light and bright main level houses large living room with soaring, wood clad cathedral ceilings with beamed accents, floor to ceiling brick surround woodburning fireplace with gas starter and direct access to relaxing three season's porch, open dining area with plenty of room to entertain that has easy access to sweeping rear deck with beautiful views of the treed backdrop, nicely appointed kitchen with stainless appliances and lots of cabinetry and counter space, spacious primary bedroom with more cathedral ceilings, and full bath with whirlpool tub. Retreat to the finished walkout lower level to find a generous family room with access to rear patio and yard, two comfortable guest bedrooms, an additional full bath, laundry room with deep basin sink, and extra storage room. Exterior is highlighted by nice landscaping with stone beds and limestone retaining wall, with plenty of lush yard to enjoy the outdoors. Detached two car garage has ample room for vehicles and storage, and asphalt drive allows for additional parking. Sold furnished with some exclusions and to be transferred via separate bill of sale. Central location provides easy access to all amenities of The Galena Territory, including Owners' Club with indoor pool, outdoor pool, fitness facility, game room, multi-sport gym, tennis courts and more, scenic Lake Galena with newly built Marina and Pavilion, and miles of gorgeous paved and unpaved trails.
