Property Description
Welcome to a residence where timeless architecture meets uncompromising modern refinement. Gracefully positioned on a majestic corner parcel along the coveted north edge of Colfax, this impeccably maintained all-brick ranch captures sweeping views of lush countryside while offering a lifestyle defined by quality, comfort, and enduring craftsmanship. Every inch of this extraordinary three-bedroom, three-bath home has been thoughtfully enhanced with a commitment to excellence. The beautifully renovated kitchen with granite counters is as functional as it is elegant, complemented by updated bathrooms, newer appliances, premium finishes, and an effortless flow that makes everyday living feel exceptional. Natural light pours through an entire collection of Andersen windows and screens installed in 2023, while high-end exterior doors added in 2019 further elevate the home's curb appeal and energy efficiency. Built with robust 2x6 construction, exceptional insulation, and meticulous attention to detail, this residence delivers remarkable efficiency without sacrificing comfort. A 2019 roof, paired with a 22 kW Generac Guardian whole-house generator installed in 2023, provides confidence and peace of mind through every season. The finished lower level transforms the home into an entertainer's dream and an everyday retreat. A sprawling family room, custom bar, full third bathroom, dedicated office, expansive workshop, and abundant storage create an incredibly versatile space ready to accommodate everything from lively gatherings to quiet evenings at home. Outside, mature trees and professionally maintained landscaping frame the property in natural beauty. Begin your mornings on the impressive 24-foot covered front porch overlooking the peaceful countryside, or unwind beneath the 16' x 10' covered rear patio surrounded by the serenity of your private backyard. Completing the package is an oversized 24' x 25' insulated garage designed for both practicality and comfort. This is far more than a beautifully updated home, it is a rare opportunity to embrace refined country-edge living where enduring construction, thoughtful updates, and breathtaking surroundings come together in perfect harmony. Luxury is not measured by excess; it's measured by how effortlessly a home enriches everyday life. This remarkable Colfax ranch delivers exactly that.
