About This Home

As of March 2025

Between the seclusion, space between neighbors and the private wooded backyard oasis with a new pool, the setting on this home in Roscoe has the wow factor you’ll love! The home itself is a 4BR and 2.5BA 2-story situated on more than 3/4 acre with partially exposed basement. Steel I-beam construction. New roof in 2021 with new skylight! Main floor features semi-open concept kitchen with angled peninsula, built-in desk, eating area with sliders to composite deck and family room with river rock fireplace flanked by quarter round windows. Main floor dedicated laundry room. Living room has crown molding and French doors to family room. Formal dining room decorative ceiling element. Second level offers 4 bedrooms, all of great size. The master suite has a vaulted ceiling, large 10x6 walk-in closet and private bath with corner whirlpool and shower. Massive potential in lower level that has partial exposure for future bedrooms and plumbing for a 3rd full bathroom. Perhaps the most fantastic feature of this home is the unbeatable backyard: 16x16 main elevated composite deck overlooking terraced landscaping, expansive views of the forest behind, 16x14 pool deck with storage underneath built-in benches and a new 27’ pool installed by Great Escape. Lots of fresh landscaping and low maintenance perennials. Invisible dog fencing with 2 collars. Highly desirable Roscoe schools! There’s plenty of time to move in and enjoy the pool this summer.
