A truly unique, one-of-a-kind opportunity on nearly 3/4 of an acre with a beautifully wooded setting backing to forest preserve! This distinctive home offers a first floor ensuite, incredible character, privacy, and space, beginning with a front screened porch and back solarium that let you enjoy the peaceful surroundings from either side of the home. Inside, the gourmet kitchen features granite countertops, abundant cabinetry and counter space, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and a professional-grade Viking double oven/range set within a dramatic stone cooking alcove. The first floor offers a private bedroom suite with a full bath, along with elegant built-in shelving and desk space. Abundant windows bring natural light and wooded views indoors, with Pella windows and doors on the main level and Andersen windows on the second floor. Three beautiful masonry fireplaces with fan systems provide both warmth and character, making it easy to efficiently warm the home on chilly days. An indoor/outdoor speaker system extends throughout the home and outdoor living areas. Upstairs, an adorable loft creates a fun playhouse, reading retreat, or a fun and cozy sleeping area. Additional features include a finished crawlspace offering valuable usable space. Just a 2 minute walk to Emerson Elementary. All of this in a peaceful, nature-filled setting while still conveniently located close to walking paths, shopping, dining, and major expressways like 290, 294, 355, and 83. A remarkable property surrounded by mature trees and nature with a setting that is increasingly difficult to find.
