Since inception, this masterpiece was built with superior materials, many which have been updated to present date with the same original quality envisioned when it was designed. You will instantly fall in love with the very private totally fenced backyard oasis. The 1.3 acre park-like estate property can be accessed at both ends. The yard has lovingly nurtured mature plantings, 75 trees, arbor vitae, fir trees, and perennial plantings all served by underground sprinklers. Strategically concealed by shrubs and other plantings is a sizable storage shed and garden area. The focal point in the yard is the amazing in-ground, heated pool, fire pit, patio area and pool house/garage/rec space. Situated on the main floor is your foyer, living room with fireplace, dining room, large eating area, flanked by a sunroom with vanity like wet bar, access to the outside patio, and eat-in kitchen island, vaulted ceiling family room with fireplace, a radiant heated floor and another separate patio access. There also the often sought-after main floor bedroom, with a recently updated granite, ceramic tile bathroom with floor-to-ceiling shower doors and extra height vanity. Your guests will envy the kitchen that would befit a Gourmet Chef, which features taller height counters, a wall of storage with pull-out drawers for linens, and food storage.

Walk through the Loft space before entering the master bedroom, offering two adjoining rooms plus a private office you can also access from the main floor, ceiling fans, vaulted ceiling, and built-in TV. The master bathroom is almost as large as the 17' x 19' sitting room, which was the original master bedroom. It offers an amazing space to recreate today's sumptuous style bath and a larger customized closet system if you desire. Grab your favorite bathroom designer for a brand new look in the enormous master bathroom. Reading this far, you still may not realize the home has 10+ rooms and 3.1 baths. Yet still, have the pool house/garage/rec space to explore. The oversize, heated 2+ back garage will accommodate taller vehicles. Like to wash that prized vehicle? No problem! Water troughs are added to this garage for melting snow or an indoor car wash! Above the garage space is the recreation area with it's own bathroom. The dormers allow great views of the expansive, beautifully landscaped yard. Another washer and dryer are located here for all the pool towels or any other items. There's another bathroom on the ground level near the pool, and the boiler room with the heat source for the pool and garage in this building, along with its own water system. There is an additional room that can be used as storage space or a separate office here as well. Please note this home is located in the 9-12 option zone so there is a choice of Stagg or Carl Sandburg High School. This is definitely a Hidden Gem. This remarkable opportunity only awaits your unique appointments. This amazing value is your opportunity to experience the lifestyle you have always dreamed of.
