Description
Head-turning curb appeal and a PRIME location all add up to making this NEWER all brick and stone beauty with three car garage a dream come true!!! Enjoy being only blocks to town & train as well as highly rated District #30 public schools-newly built Wescott (K-5), Maple (6-8) and Glenbrook North High School-it just doesn't get any better! A pretty paver brick drive and walkway leads to a striking stone portico providing a most welcoming entrance into this beautiful home. Step into the foyer and be impressed with the turned wrought iron staircase leading to the upper level gallery complete with illuminated double-trayed barrel ceiling. Step into the elegant living room which could easily be a main floor office; coffered ceilings add immense architectural interest and there are oversized transomed windows throughout overlooking the pretty tree-lined street. Curved French doors open to a large formal dining room which is adjacent to the super-sized kitchen and family room. Gourmet cooks will LOVE the gorgeous kitchen filled with richly-hued cherry cabinetry and boasts commercial-grade stainless steel appliances such as Thermador 6-burner with griddle range and double ovens and Subzero. There is an extra-large furniture-styled center island with seating, a handy planning center and a roomy bayed eating area which opens to the patio perfect for entertaining. And the entire kitchen opens to the spectacular family room which features an inviting fireplace with a gracefully curved wall full of transomed windows which overlook the expansive fully-fenced backyard. Four bedrooms are located in the upper level-all with adjoining or connecting private baths; the 5th and 6th bedrooms are located in the lower level with a full bath if needed (currently used as game & exercise rooms). The romantic primary bedroom, with attractive trayed ceilings, is an oasis unto itself and has room for both sitting and office areas with plenty of room left for the Peloton, too! There are two generous 'his and hers' organized walk-in closets and an ultra-luxurious bath with jacuzzi and steam shower. The enormous lower level is fully finished and ready to go for more fun and play. Everyone will love to gather around the 2nd fireplace in the spacious recreation room; French doors define the adjacent game and exercise rooms and there is a convenient bath and plenty of storage, too. There are lovely curved archways, attractive crown moldings and quarter-sawn oak hardwood floorings throughout the entire main level. A 5th full bath is located on the main level and there is a convenient laundry room with cubbies off the attached 3 car garage with expoxy flooing. Recent updates include: Fully fenced yard, replaced condensers in two air conditioning units ('17), LG washer/dryer ('15), Miele dishwasher ('19), 75 gallon hot water heater ('15). Professional landscaping further enhances the wonderful look of this exceptional home in one of Northbrook's most sought-after locations! NOTE showing times will be limited to weekends.
