One's affinity of the home compounds as you enter into the grand living room with soaring redwood beamed ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows which offer expansive views of the surrounding landscape, giving you the sense of living within nature. The home is surrounded by terraces offering private views in every direction. The kitchen is designed for entertaining with its massive island along with informal and formal dining opportunities. At every turn, you'll see visual elements and esthetics that you won't see in any other home.

Relax or entertain guests on the 2nd level, in the Great Room featuring a family room/media room with fireplace, wet bar, game room and access to the screened porch and pond view terrace. You could even stock the pond with your favorite fish! The privacy of the master bedroom suite offers a sitting room with fireplace, 2 walk in closets, a wooded-view balcony and luxurious master bath. This estate is a treasure in the Southwest Suburbs of Chicago, it awaits an inspired new owner who has an eye for detail and design, and a love of all things Mid Century Modern. It's said, the architect was a student of Frank Lloyd Wright, it's a mystery though we don't know his name.
