Welcome to your own private retreat in the rolling hills of Countryside! Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac just off the scenic River Road corridor, this serene PASSIVE SOLAR-powered home sits on a lush and private .7-acre lot with mature trees and plantings. Built by Lee Rusty Rothrock of Natural Concepts, LTD, this home offers 4 bedrooms, 4 baths, and three spacious levels for both comfort and flexibility. Step inside the front door vestibule to find warm hickory wood floors and a well-thought-out floor plan. To one side of the entryway, you’ll find a cozy family room with built-in bookcases and a wood-burning fireplace—perfect for chilly evenings. To the other, an open living and dining area is ready for gatherings of any size. The thoughtfully designed kitchen is a cook’s best friend, with a center island, granite countertops, stainless steel GE Profile and JennAir appliances, and smart cabinet storage (including rollout shelves and a built-in wine rack). Enjoy your morning coffee in the sunny breakfast nook, or in the adjacent slate-floored sunroom with wood beams and walls of windows overlooking the peaceful backyard. Step outside to the deck, or follow the winding staircase to the upstairs sunroom and balcony for even more fresh-air views. A first-floor suite with a walk-in closet and full bath can serve as a guest space, home office, or den. Upstairs, you’ll find three more bedrooms and a hall bath, including a spacious primary suite with multiple closets and an ensuite bath featuring a double vanity and spa shower. The walk-out lower level offers a second family room with a woodstove and a wonderfully flexible room and full bath that would work perfectly as a playroom, teenage hangout or 5th bedroom. Finally, there’s a bonus room that could serve as a craft area, office or gym or be converted back to a garage space! This home blends privacy, comfort, and versatility in a beautiful natural setting—making it the perfect place to settle in and stay awhile.
