Description

Are you sick of just looking at houses, do you want to buy a HOME?! The current homeowners have been the fortunate stewards of this home on the edge of the Gold Coast for over 20 years! They have been lovingly renovating and customizing this farmhouse style home with a contemporary addition!! The newly finished addition features a large great room with a stone fireplace under a vaulted ceiling, a studio/workroom, an amazing artistic unique wet room/full bathroom with a hose spigot on the first floor, extra storage, and the primary suite which includes a walk-in closet and full bathroom with double soaker tub plus a separate shower!! The addition has been seamlessly integrated into the original home which features 3 additional bedrooms, another full bath, and kitchen with maple flooring, maple cabinets, and custom carved molding!! Other updates and features include new flooring, newly painted rooms, all electrical, numerous skylights, and 2 staircases! This home is full of character just blocks from a bike trail that runs along the Fox River! Less than 2 miles to the Elgin Metra and I90!! The convenient location is more like country life but with access to town and city alike! The endless customization can't truly be appreciated until you see it!
