Set on a beautifully landscaped 1.17-acre corner lot in the sought-after Arbor Creek neighborhood of St. Charles, this one-owner 5 bedroom, 4 bath brick and vinyl Colonial offers the perfect blend of space, privacy, and convenience just minutes from downtown. A welcoming front porch, 3-car sideload garage, expansive backyard deck, and walkout basement create an ideal setting for both everyday living and entertaining. Inside, hardwood flooring throughout most of the main level, highlights a thoughtfully designed layout featuring 9' ceilings, a living room with French doors, a formal dining room with a dramatic cathedral ceiling, and a spacious family room anchored by a floor-to-ceiling masonry fireplace. The eat-in kitchen is equipped with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances including a newer dishwasher, tile backsplash, and a bright breakfast room with slider to the deck, plus wiring in place for a wine cooler. A versatile first-floor office or 5th bedroom with built-in bookshelves sits adjacent to a full bath, along with a convenient first-floor laundry room. Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms include the primary suite with a walk-in closet and a deluxe private bath featuring a double bowl vanity, whirlpool tub, and updated shower. Both upstairs bathrooms offer instant on hot water. The finished walkout basement expands your living space with a large rec room and full bath, with potential to add a patio at the walkout level. Major updates include a new roof in 2022, fresh exterior paint, and HVAC in 2015, along with new skylights. Additional features include a whole-house water filtration system, industrial-grade HEPA filter, basement freezer, 800-foot well, and zoning that allows for a future pool. Enjoy the rare combination of large-lot privacy and proximity to schools, including the nearby elementary school, all within one of St. Charles' most desirable communities.
