Description
Spectacularly renovated Northbrook residence offering an incredible combination of style, space, and thoughtful design. Featuring 6 bedrooms (5 up, 1 down), 3.5 bathrooms, office, den, family room, walnut-stained hardwood floors throughout, and so much more! Step through the gorgeous custom walnut-stained front door into a chic foyer. Just off the foyer is a private office with large south-facing windows and a custom built-in spanning the entire north wall. The separate dining room offers another oversized south-facing window and room for an 8-12 person table. The show-stopping kitchen features oak and painted cabinetry, quartz countertops, custom painted wood hood, and KitchenAid Professional Series stainless steel appliances, including a 36-inch, 6-burner range with oversized oven. Double pantries, custom lighting, tons of storage, and a 3-seat peninsula make this kitchen as functional as it is beautiful. An informal eat-in area sits alongside an oversized den-perfect for reading, homework, or a quiet space away from the hustle and bustle. The first-floor family room is something special, with a custom arched bar featuring quartz counters, tile backsplash, marble sconces, and beverage center. A wood-burning fireplace with gas starter is surrounded by a painted stone wall and limestone hearth. Cathedral ceilings and a custom wood beam complete this impressive space. Step outside to the newly poured 25' x 30' concrete patio overlooking the enormous backyard-perfect for grilling, entertaining, or playing catch. The first-floor mudroom includes terracotta flooring, custom built-in bench and cubbies, large closet, and access from the garage and west side of the home. Upstairs you'll find 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and a decked-out laundry room. The primary suite checks all the boxes with a spa-like bath featuring heated floors, an extra-large shower with dual shower heads, bench and niche, frameless glass enclosure, soaking tub, dual-sink quartz vanity, and porcelain tile throughout. Large north-facing windows keep the bedroom bright, while a spacious walk-in closet provides plenty of storage. Three additional well-sized bedrooms share a hall bath with dual-sink quartz vanity, linen closet, and shower/tub combo. The fifth bedroom has its own en suite bath with custom tilework, heated floors, and frameless glass shower. The second-floor laundry room features quartz counters, loads of cabinetry, high-efficiency side-by-side washer and dryer, and stainless steel sink. Need more space? The basement offers LVP flooring throughout, a large sixth bedroom, rec room, utility/storage room, and crawl space for additional storage. This complete renovation goes well beyond the finishes, with new wiring and 2 breaker panels, new plumbing, 2 new HVAC systems, and new concrete sidewalks and patios. A 2.5-car garage with loads of storage rounds out the home. The location is tough to beat-steps to Westcot Park, 1 block to the Northbrook Sports Center/Pool, and just a 10-minute walk or 2-minute drive to Maple/GBN. Tastefully designed by Lisa Schluchter Design and thoughtfully constructed by LRS Design+Build. Come check it out before it's gone!
