Property Description
Set on 3.23 acres in Dyer, this fully reimagined 4 bed, 5 bath estate has been completely gutted and rebuilt with exceptional attention to detail, offering a rare blend of luxury, functionality, and privacy. The open-concept kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring new stone countertops, a coffee bar, and a full suite of oversized stainless steel appliances. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the right wing of an impressive 1,728 sq ft great room, creating a true centerpiece of the home while the sunroom provides a bright, relaxing extension of the living area. Flooring throughout includes a refined mix of luxury vinyl, hardwood, and tile, with bathrooms finished with glass enclosures and modern, spa-like touches. Refurbished Andersen windows, along with new window installations, allow for abundant natural light throughout the home. Designed for comfort and efficiency, the home features a geothermal HVAC system with a redundant backup system, along with a 4-ton commercial-grade unit dedicated to the great room. Additional interior features include a sauna with a bathroom, a bonus room with two built-in mini refrigerators, and an internal vacuum system located in the garage. The exterior has been just as thoughtfully improved as the interior, featuring full-property tree trimming, newly installed grass/sod where needed, and a freshly resurfaced driveway. The property offers scenic pond views, mature mulberry and pear trees, a BBQ pit, an original well to be converted into a planter, and a brand new septic system. Additional highlights include a 1,536 sq ft pole barn, additional parking, and a newly poured concrete 2-car garage with new doors and updated lighting. Motion-sensor lighting surrounds the entire exterior for added convenience and security. Ideally located with easy access to major highways, this property offers both privacy and accessibility. Don't miss your opportunity to make it yours!
