Property Description
**HIGHEST AND BEST DUE BY TODAY MONDAY 4/06 BY 6PM**Tucked into a quiet Ellington neighborhood, 8 Gem Drive offers the kind of easy, comfortable living that feels right the moment you arrive. Set on a large, private yard framed by mature trees, this inviting ranch blends thoughtful updates with everyday functionality. Inside, natural light fills the living spaces with hardwood underneath the carpets, creating a warm and welcoming flow. The updated kitchen with newer appliances and the remodeled full bathroom bring a fresh, modern touch, while three well-sized bedrooms, with hardwood underneath the carpeting, provide comfortable space to unwind. Recent upgrades-including a new furnace, central air, and washer/dryer (all within the last 2-3 years), new leaf guard gutter system -offer peace of mind for years to come. Out back, the home truly shines. A composite deck with a remote-controlled awning sets the stage for slow mornings or lively evenings, complete with a 5-burner gas grill and propane fire pit. Two outbuildings add flexibility for storage or hobbies, and the expansive yard invites you to relax, garden, or entertain. The partially finished basement offers endless potential for future living space, while a one-car attached garage and newer driveway add everyday convenience. Just minutes from Crystal Lake, Shenipsit State Forest, and local favorites like Cold Creek Brewery, this home offers a perfect blend of privacy, updates, and location.
