"A Hidden Artistic Retreat - First Time Ever Offered" Tucked away from the road and nearly hidden from view, this one-of-a-kind 1960 ranch is more than a home - it's an experience. Built with solid concrete block construction and infused with artistic spirit from its original owner, a working artist, this extraordinary property has remained in the same family for four generations and is now being offered to the public for the very first time. Designed for gathering, celebrating, and living boldly, the home offers an incredible 3,487 square feet on the main level with spaces made for entertaining on a grand scale. A gigantic living room welcomes guests with warmth and character, while the sunken den with fireplace creates the perfect cozy retreat filled with mid-century charm and unmistakable artsy vibes. Throughout the home, you'll find beautiful parquet flooring, thoughtfully updated luxury vinyl plank in select areas, and creative architectural touches that make every room feel unique. The newly renovated kitchen and stunning primary bath blend modern comfort with timeless style, while five bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths provide flexibility for family, guests, or creative spaces. Two additional baths conveniently serve the remaining four bedrooms. Step outside and discover grounds that were once a true showplace - and could easily shine again. Mature landscaping, graceful cherry trees, and over 2.037 private in-town acres create a rare combination of space, beauty, and convenience. And yes - your very own authentic train caboose adds a whimsical, unforgettable feature unlike anything else on the market. Despite its peaceful, secluded setting, you're just minutes from fine dining, shopping, the Community House, city parks, Lake Russell, hiking trails, and endless outdoor recreation. Private. Artistic. Full of history and personality. A home built for entertaining, creativity, and making memories - ready for its next chapter. PLEASE NOTE THAT ONLY THE HOME AND TRACT 2 ARE BEING SOLD AT THIS LIST PRICE. Tract 1, appx 1.5 acres can be purchased separately.
