About This Home

As of March 2025

Nestled on a private, wooded 5.3 acre lot in the premier Wayne community, this home exudes both warmth and grandeur, offering a perfect balance of comfort and character along with modern amenities and timeless appeal, in a serene, natural setting. This is not just a house-this is a place you can truly call home. Upon entering the long, private driveway, you are welcomed by the sprawling grounds of this substantial yet inviting farmhouse. Featuring 2 main-level primary ensuite bedrooms, this home is designed for comfort and convenience. The gorgeous grounds include an attached 2-car garage, along with a heated, detached 4-car garage currently used as an office and art studio. Whether you're working, creating, or entertaining, this versatile space has endless potential. Bright and sunny, the home boasts a thoughtful floor plan that supports both family living and entertaining. The open spaces allow for flexibility in room layout, giving you the freedom to adapt the home to your lifestyle needs. The architectural details throughout the home add a touch of elegance, blending seamlessly with its farmhouse charm. AND... full-home Kohler generator, fully fenced backyard, 3 indoor fireplaces, flagstone patio and walkway, 18 newly planted ten-foot evergreens, some new windows and a slider, freshly painted exterior, new gutters, new HVAC, new water heater, new septic, new sump and backup, and newly resurfaced driveway. Located in an equestrian community with direct access to the Wayne trail system and Riding Club, this home has hosted a few family weddings in its time. Minutes from St. Charles and Geneva, you'll enjoy the best of both worlds - close proximity to shopping, dining, and city amenities - while still embracing the privacy and serenity of country living. Perfect for families or those who love to entertain, this home offers a private backyard oasis with a patio, grill and oversized firepit, ideal for relaxation or outdoor gatherings.
