About This Home
Welcome to 651 Genoa Rd, a rare find on 1.18 wooded acres backing up to a protected wetland conservation area. If you’ve been looking for privacy without giving up convenience, this one checks all the boxes. The setting is hard to beat. Mature trees, peaceful views, and no backyard neighbors, just nature. Yet you’re only minutes from downtown Cherry Valley, Business 20, and I-39 & 90 for an easy commute. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully updated and is truly move-in ready. The vaulted living room features hardwood floors, a cozy fireplace, and great natural light. The eat-in kitchen has been refreshed with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, painted cabinetry, and a stylish backsplash, and it flows easily into the dining and living spaces. The primary suite features deck access, an updated bath with dual sinks, a walk-in closet with organizers, and a tiled walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath round out the main level. Downstairs, you’ll find a finished, partially exposed lower level with a spacious family room, fourth bedroom, full bath, and a flexible space that works well for guests, a home office, kids' playroom, or a workout area. Out back, enjoy multiple deck areas, a lower patio with a hot tub that stays, and a custom fire pit tucked into the trees, the perfect spot to unwind. Homes with this kind of lot, privacy, and updates don’t come along often in Cherry Valley. This one is ready for its next owner to move right in and enjoy.
