Welcome to this move-in-ready, vinyl sided ranch in Athens, Illinois. Beautifully updated, loved, and maintained by the same owner since 2012, this 3-bedroom, 2-full-bath home truly checks all the boxes. Step through the front door (new in 2025) into a spacious living room that flows seamlessly into the kitchen, creating an open and easy layout. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, including a brand new french door refrigerator (2026), along with ample cabinet and counter space. Adjacent the kitchen, you’ll find the mechanical area and laundry room with newer maytag washer and dryer—both to remain. Down the hallway are three generously sized bedrooms, including a primary suite with a private, recently updated full bathroom and a great sized walk in closet. A second full bathroom off the hall has also been tastefully renovated. Additional updates include fresh paint and flooring throughout the entire home. Off the living room is access to the heated two-car garage, complete with a newer garage door (2021) and a great entertaining or hangout space. Outside, enjoy a spacious chain-link-fenced backyard, a storage shed for extra organization, 12x15 deck, and an AC unit new in 2021. Did I mention that there are NO REAR NEIGHBORS? Rarely does a home this well-maintained and updated come available, especially at this price point in the heart of Menard County. Schedule your showing today before this one is gone!
