Property Description

Tucked into a peaceful 5-acre parcel surrounded by mature trees, 1897 N. 2500 E. Rd. in Watseka is the ultimate expression of Country Luxury-a perfect balance of rustic charm and upscale comfort. This 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom Craftsman home offers over 5,600 square feet of beautifully finished space across three thoughtfully designed levels. The main floor welcomes you with gleaming 3/4" hardwood floors, solid cherry doors, and rich custom cabinetry throughout. Culinary enthusiasts will appreciate the oversized kitchen island, built-in wine storage, commercial Vulcan range, and high-capacity stainless fridge. Retreat to the primary suite, where the spa-inspired bathroom includes dual sinks, a soaking tub, a walk-in shower, and heated tile floors for a cozy start to your day. The fully finished walkout basement is its own complete living space-featuring a second full kitchen, dining area, utility closet, large living room, three bedrooms, and a full bath-perfect for guests, in-laws, or even a home-based business. Additional luxury upgrades include geothermal heating, radiant floors in the basement, garage, and master bath, and a Navien tankless water heater. Outdoors, you'll find a 40x50 heated workshop, a charming she shed, and a whole-house generator for peace of mind. Whether you're entertaining or simply enjoying nature, this home has room to grow with additional acreage available.
