Why build new when this quality ranch style home is "like new" and just 6 minutes from Princeton. Located in quiet Dover, Illinois, this home was custom built for a local insurance agent who put lots of thought into those details that make a home exceptional ! The home faces South with a great view of Bureau County's rich farmland. The back yard has privacy for using the large concrete patio that overlooks a acre plus yard. Room for a garden, orchard, or a additional building to house those extras to keep this estate looking sharp. A three car garage has a separate set of steps to the lower level allowing you to bring in all those things that don't need to go thru the home....woodworking tools, hunting and fishing gear, muddy boots...all get taken downstairs without tracking thru the home's main level. Greeting you and your guests is a spacious foyer with 9 foot ceilings, overlooking a great room with a 13 foot tall vaulted ceiling....all with a focal point to a corner gas fireplace. The kitchen is expansive with hardwood cabinetry, solid surface countertops, stainless steel appliances, a large island with butcher block countertops and room for 6 chairs. There's a walk in pantry and a large laundry room with a extra deep utility sink. The home has a main level office that is just off the entry foyer, perfect for greeting clients. The primary bedroom is generous in size with two walk in closets, an adjoining bathroom with a jetted tub and a walk in shower. The additional bedrooms are on the opposite side of the home offering privacy for all. The lower level has a huge room that could be easily finished into additional living space. A full bathroom is already installed. A Generac backup generator offers power to the homes essentials in power outages. There is much more to see and enjoy on this custom built home. The floor plan is spot on what buyers want today, open with lots of natural light, casual dining areas, a feel like your on vacation at one of your favorite destinations......you will not be disappointed.
