About This Home
As of October 2020What a fantastic transformation of this Trout Valley no-step ranch! Set on a quiet cul-de-sac - and one of only three homes that backs to Tom Sawyer Pond - the house offers the serenity and tranquility of hearing the nearby waterfall on your gently rolling 2/3 acre lot. In the last four years, the home has been improved dramatically with a more open floor plan, all new kitchen with walnut & slate blue cabinets by Amish Custom Kitchens, quartz counters, bar seating and all new stainless steel appliances including wine/beverage fridge, new LVT flooring by Karndean throughout, remodeled bathroom, all new walls, ceilings and recessed lighting, professional landscaping, a new water system, high-efficiency furnace and more! Live easily in this single-level home with other great features including open Living / Dining / Kitchen & Family Rooms, 2-sided stone & brick fireplace, screened porch and a beautiful, spacious paver patio with fire pit and covered pergola seating area. Take advantage of the MANY features and amenities of one of the Northwest Suburbs' most beautiful and unique communities: Ponds & fishing, equestrian activities, riding and walking trails, a community barn, lodge, pool, tennis courts and so much more. All set in an idyllic, rolling landscape and served by the highly-rated Cary Grove High School.
