Stately curb appeal, a kitchen built for real life, and room for everyone. This one has it all. The professionally landscaped lot and classic brick-and-cedar exterior make a strong first impression, and inside, the dramatic entry opens to soaring ceilings, rich hardwood floors, and crown molding. It feels elegant without being stuffy.

The chef’s kitchen is the heart of the home: a Viking range, crisp white cabinetry with warm gold hardware, an oversized island, a butler’s pantry, and a dedicated coffee bar. Holiday crowds and quiet Tuesday mornings both work well here.

Every room has a purpose. Curl up by the fireplace, host dinner in the formal dining room, or read in the library. The sun-filled sunroom overlooks the backyard, and outside, a large paver patio framed by mature trees gives you a private spot to entertain or unwind.

The primary suite is your retreat, with a spa-style bath featuring heated floors, a large walk-in shower, and a soaking tub. The secondary bedrooms are generous, and the finished basement adds a 5th bedroom, built-ins, a 27×25 rec room, and plenty of storage for guests, hobbies, or multi-generational living.

The big stuff is handled: roof 2021, and the furnace, A/C, and water heater are all within the last 5 years. The three-car garage has room for vehicles, toys, and hobbies.

All of this sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac backing to forest preserve, with easy access to Metra and the expressway. Weekends are covered too, with the Chain O’Lakes, nearby forest preserves, Gurnee Mills, and Great America all close by. Updated, meticulously maintained, and move-in ready. Come see it in person.
