Description
If you haven't had the opportunity to stroll through the secluded subdivision of Pine Paradise (rumored to be planted long ago by Boy Scouts as a tree farm long abandoned), then you haven't been fortunate to smell air that radiates from the MAJESTIC PINES all year long (over 130 PINES located on this lot ALONE). Mulch is replaced by pine needles and traffic is scarce with this unique, u-shaped, and PRIVATE area, very close to Prairie Grove K-8 school (PR High School). Set within the subdivision, among the most ECLECTIC GARDENS, is this beautiful country home with a LONG, WELCOMING PORCH and total privacy around! Over 5100 square feet of finished and large living spaces! Within this serene atmosphere find a sprawling floor plan consisting of 4 OVERSIZED bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, 1st floor OFFICE (with full wall of custom bookshelves) and a versatile dining room that could convert to a 5th BEDROOM on the 1st floor. Recently renovated kitchen (2013 & painted in 2022) centers around the OVERSIZED over 10' ISLAND (perfect for the buffet setup) that is flooded in sunlight by the most architecturally unique SKYLIGHTS that light up the expansive GRANITE counters, eating area, office and travel to the family room! A walk-n pantry & plethora of cabinets create all the storage for all the chef's tools & food! The OPEN flow leads you through a HUGE eating area with beautiful views of the backyard & deck and continues to the LARGEST FAMILY ROOM I've seen in this area! The VAULTED family room 28'x18' with SKYLIGHT extends from the front to the back of the house, showcases a floor to ceiling fireplace brick surround and leads into the sanctuary of a THREE-SEASON room 18'x15' that completes the feeling of living in absolute solitude. Enveloped in KNOTTY PINE, skylights & 180 DEGREES of wooded views lets you enjoy the country privacy WITHOUT THE BUGS! Make no mistake, THIS floor plan was made for ENTERTAINING LARGE gatherings. Head upstairs to the split floor plan creating the MAIN bedroom suite separated down the walkway from the 3 additional bedrooms. In the MAIN en-suite, a remodeled bathroom provides two separate sink areas, 1 with a LONG sitting area. HUGE soaker tub is featured in the main room while the updated SHOWER is in a private water closet. In a room bigger than many people's bedrooms, find a MASSIVE primary CLOSET 18'x9'. On the other side of the 2nd floor are the 3 bedrooms and full bathroom with updated with double granite sinks and a separate shower restroom. The BASEMENT IS FINISHED to include a FULL Bathroom, REC Room with ELECTRIC FIREPLACE, BAR, HUGE WORKSHOP AREA ready for your large equipment PLUS a cemented 28'x18' crawl space for additional storage! FROM THE BASEMENT, SUNROOM or EATING AREA access the backyard and walk along the LONG-extended deck that overlooks the 1+ ACRE yard with a NATURAL boundary in the back and no one behind you. There is space for two separate outdoor dining areas and the shade from the trees will keep you cool in the mid-day sun. As you walk around the house, the gardens are a treasure of many different trees, shrubs, and perennials in addition to the pine trees (Japanese Maple, Crabapple, Pear, Red Oak, Service Berry, Hydrangeas, Hibiscus, Viburnum, Astilbe, Garden Phlox, Black Eyed Susans, Lilies and more). There are also sweet smelling plants as well (Korean Spice Viburnum, Summersweet Clematis, Lilacs and Roses including Boomerang Roses and more! Something is in bloom from early spring to late fall. Even though you experience relaxed country living in this secluded home, you can emerge for SHOPPING, RESTAURANTS & METRA TRAIN STATIONS close by. Expansive selection of Crystal Lake Park District programs, Golf Courses and Conservation areas. Come enjoy the good life!
