Property Description

Move right into this beautifully maintained and thoughtfully updated home, ideally situated on a professionally landscaped corner lot with mature trees. Featuring a first-floor primary suite and a seamless blend of modern updates and timeless finishes, this home is as comfortable as it is inviting. Inside, bright, well-proportioned rooms create an open, airy feel throughout. The chef's kitchen impresses with high-end finishes and top of the line appliances including Sub-Zero and Wolf. A sunny breakfast room has a direct access to a new composite deck, perfect for evenings by the gas fire table overlooking the fenced yard, an ideal setting for both relaxing and entertaining. For added comfort there is an electric gas heater and a direct gas line for grilling. The dramatic two-story great room is a true focal point, showcasing a floor-to-ceiling fireplace and gleaming hardwood floors. The first-floor primary suite offers a serene retreat with a spa-like bathroom, complete with an electronically controlled multi-head shower system, rain shower, double vanity, and elegant finishes. A large, custom designed walk-in closet completes the room. Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms - two with en-suite baths - offer comfort and privacy. The finished lower level expands the living space with above-grade windows, a large family room with a second fireplace, a private office, full bath, and a flexible area perfect for a playroom, home gym, or guest space. Extensive updates include newer mechanicals, a newer architectural shingle roof, a new driveway and bluestone walkway, built-in speakers, and a spacious two-car garage. Ideally located just two blocks from Northcroft Park and close to shopping, Metra, major highways, and top-rated schools, this home offers the perfect balance of comfort and convenience.
