Welcome to your own private slice of country living. 5 acres, where space, scenery, and convenience all meet. Tucked just minutes from it all (approx. 6 minutes to both downtown Edwardsville and interstate access) and less than 30 minutes to St. Louis, this property delivers the rare blend of country living with city amenities right at your fingertips. The outdoor living space includes a newer composite deck and a fenced yard — perfectly positioned for sunset evenings around the pool, with a view of the animal pasture and wide-open landscape. Equestrian-ready, the property includes a barn with a run-in shed for the horses and ample storage, an all-weather dry lot paddock with geotextile fabric under lime, a large, flat fenced grass pasture with a private pond and wood dock, and a lean-to for covered trailer parking or equipment storage. A chicken coop and covered run, a garden area, and multiple outdoor storage options support the self-sufficient lifestyle this land offers. Inside, the home offers a spacious, inviting layout highlighted by a large eat-in kitchen featuring solid wood cabinetry, Corian countertops, a generous pantry, and an adjoining breakfast area. Main level bathrooms were updated in 2024. Fresh paint, updated lighting and fixtures, brand-new carpeting, Anderson windows, and faux wood blinds bring a clean, updated feel throughout. The finished and freshly painted lower level expands your living space with a recreation room, a 3/4 bath with ceramic tile, and a versatile bonus room, with built in shelving and a large walk in closet - ideal for a non conforming bedroom, office, or flex space. A cozy fireplace with electric logs and additional storage complete the lower level. Additional highlights include a tankless water heater, a radon mitigation system, and a well-maintained/regularly serviced aeration system. The oversized 2-car attached garage includes storage cabinetry, a refrigerator, and attic access. What truly sets this property apart is a combination of the useable acreage, functional improvements, and conveniences in all directions yet offering a lifestyle that feels private and rural. A one-of-a-kind Edwardsville retreat, ready to be lived in, loved, and fully enjoyed.
