Impressive custom ranch tucked into the desirable Fountains of Sunset subdivision. Set at the end of a cul-de-sac and surrounded by a wooded setting, this spacious 5-bedroom, 5 bath home offers over 5000 square feet of finished living space designed for both everyday comfort and memorable entertaining. The main level welcomes you with a generous living room that flows naturally into a chef-inspired kitchen, pantry, hearth room with fireplace, dining area and breakfast room. The primary suite with its vaulted ceiling, wall of windows and private deck access offers a spacious bath and walk-in closet, while two additional main-level bedrooms are connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath, creating a thoughtful layout for family or guests. The walkout lower level expands the home's possibilities with a large family and entertainment room, full kitchen and bar area, media-ready space, pool table area, two additional bedrooms or offices, two more bathrooms, and abundant storage. Outside, the fenced backyard provides room to relax, play, entertain, or add the outdoor living features you have always wanted. A 3-car garage, generous lot (two separate parcels, totaling almost an acre), and location near Sunset Hills Country Club, local conveniences, and access toward St. Louis make this Glen Carbon property a standout opportunity.
