Description

Set on nearly 5 acres of level, park-like grounds in desirable Mettawa and award-winning Stevenson High School District 125, this residence offers a rare blend of privacy, architectural character, and future potential, with approximately 4,400 square feet of living space including a partially finished basement. The home features three bedrooms on the second level, 3.1 bathrooms, two fireplaces, oak hardwood floors, refined millwork, and tranquil views from every window, complemented by a private pond and fishing pier that create a peaceful, everyday escape. A light-filled foyer with a grand front staircase leads to expansive living spaces including a formal living room, dining room with bay window, library or family room, and a thoughtfully updated country kitchen with cherry cabinetry, quartz countertops, high-end appliances, and a large island opening to a sun-drenched family room with skylights. The main-level office offers flexibility to serve as a potential fourth bedroom, while the partially finished basement provides additional rec space, storage, and a second fireplace. While some areas reflect an earlier design era, the home presents an excellent opportunity to update and personalize over time, creating a truly special property on an exceptional parcel. As a resident of Mettawa, you'll benefit from the village's 24/7 private security patrol at no cost and a generous property tax rebate program, while being just minutes from Metra lines, top-rated schools, restaurants, shops, and everyday essentials-offering the ideal balance of rural tranquility and suburban convenience.
