Exceptional in every way! A true one-of-a-kind, custom-built home by the original owner, builder Gary Paris, who brought a slice of a Montana Rustic Lodge to the area. A former Parade home in 2007, this magnificent estate boasts almost 6200 sq ft of living space, a 35' waterfall in the middle of the living space, Redwood columns, 8" cherry plank flooring, and a cutting-edge wide-open design. This architectural masterpiece boasts soaring ceilings, expansive rooms, custom woodworking and a staircase, a loft, an extra/media room with a wet bar, and a recently finished lower level all on 5 acres with a resort-like backyard guaranteed to keep the party at your house. The salt water, heated inground pool was installed by Sunco. The surrounding hardscape, brick fireplace and outdoor kitchen (which offers a refrigerator, grill, Egg grill, storage, speakers, and a retractable sunshade) is beautifully designed and private with a tree-lined rear yard. The chef's kitchen with Cherry cabinets, two sinks, limestone counters, and a huge center island is open to the main floor ensuring the chef is always part of the activity. The main level primary suite offers access to the back balcony and its bathroom has a sauna attached to the large walk-in shower, a whirlpool tub, a walk-in closet, and the addition of a second walk-in closet which was originally a third bedroom on the main level. All with custom cherry cabinetry and a center island! The second bedroom on the main level offers a walk-in closet, a private bath and sliding doors to the covered deck. Two more bedrooms with walk-in closets and a Jack-N-Jill bath were added to the partially exposed lower level. That level also has a media room, work-out room with sliding glass barn doors, office area, powder room and wine cellar with a solid steel door and separate access to the garage. The second level offers a gigantic loft that overlooks the living space and eat-in kitchen dining area and a bonus room over the three-car garage that is currently being used as a theater/billiard room with a wet bar but could be incredibly flexible space depending on your needs. The main level has a newer custom fireplace and built-ins the current owner had installed by Ron Beard. A new roof and new gutters on the home were installed in 2021. There is a whole house generator, an on-demand water heater, a reverse osmosis system for the center island sink, the waterfall, and a newer air-conditioning unit. This location offers quick access to downtown Rockford and bypass 20 and is in the desirable Winnebago school district. This home is WOW! Schedule a Private Showing
