About This Home

As of November 2023

Gated Community. Brick (all-around) end-unit townhome. This luxurious residence features four bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, four private balconies, and nearly 2600 sq ft of finished space, making it a truly standout property in this peaceful community. Situated on one of the most private lots in the complex, enjoy the tranquility of unspoiled forest views from both the back and side of the property. Once inside, you're greeted by an entryway with a soaring ceiling and a marble floor that set the stage for elegance and comfort. The open floor plan of the main living area, with its recently refinished oak floors and central staircase, provides seamless movement throughout the space. The marble-surround gas fireplace in the living room offers a welcoming spot for family gatherings, and the expansive 3-panel sliding glass doors lead out to a private deck with a beautiful forest view - your personal and private sanctuary in all seasons. The large separate dining room is perfect for hosting dinner parties and holiday celebrations, opening to an eat-in kitchen that will delight any chef. Cooking in this kitchen is a joy, with its open space, granite countertops, high-end stainless steel appliances, eat-in table space, lots of storage, and a window over the sink, which offers views of the large side yard. Upstairs, the enormous (21'x17') primary bedroom beckons with a vaulted ceiling, oak floors, another 3-panel glass sliding door to another balcony, a wall of closets, and an entrance to the sizeable granite-countered full bathroom. Two more large bedrooms, with solid oak flooring, are upstairs. One has a large walk-in closet, a vaulted ceiling, and a third private balcony. The 2nd-floor "gallery" loft/hallway offers the 4th private balcony and a convenient laundry chute leading directly to a laundry room hamper. The fully finished basement provides the flexibility of a 4th bedroom, a large family room, a laundry room with a utility sink, plenty of closets, and even space for a workshop. The home has been freshly painted and features newer carpeting on the 1st-floor staircase and 2nd-floor hall & loft areas. Meticulously maintained with lots of high-end updates. This home is move-in ready, with nothing to do but enjoy the space and the views. Once here, the yard is landscaped every week; the MANY leaves are raked weekly in the fall; the snow is removed from all pavement when over 2 inches, and the association maintains the exterior, the entry gates, and the private road: There is excellent management. The association has its own newsletter, regular meetings, and healthy reserves. The seller holds an Illinois real estate license. Don't miss this opportunity to own a bit of tranquil luxury.
