604 N Main St, Athens, IL 62613

This fantastic ranch home checks all the boxes in a desirable rural location just North of Springfield. Athens offers a small town school district in Menard County w/scenic views along the short commute to city amenities. Sitting pretty on a large lot & tucked away from Main St. traffic, this fabulous home has been meticulously cared for by the family who built it. As you approach you'll find warm & inviting curb appeal where lovely landscapes surround the perimeter & pleasant pops of color display in the shutters. Inside a bright, vaulted living space sets the scene w/neutral tones & charming fireplace focal point. Enjoy an open concept showcasing the kitchen & dining room where entertaining is easy & natural light pours in from lots of large windows in the adjacent & equally open sunroom. Just beyond the main gathering areas the convenience of a guest's half bath & generous laundry room (& extra storage) is like the cherry on top in this super practical floor plan. The kitchen also provides access to the 2car heated garage. Equipped with cabinetry, shelving, utility sink & more this space is nothing short of awesome in that it's usefulness goes far beyond parking your cars. Mechanically, this home is sound with improvements like the HVAC & water heater all replaced in the last 7yrs or less (A/C new just last yr) & the outdoor living areas are not to be overlooked either. Summers will be spent in & around a beautiful backyard; enjoyed from a deck or patio space! A real gem!
