About This Home
A Hidden Gem with Artistic Soul in the Heart of Grayslake Wake up to a view worth framing-sunlight dances across your professionally landscaped perennial garden as you sip your morning coffee from the comfort of your uniquely charming home. Tucked into the serene College Trail subdivision, just west of Route 45, this energy-efficient retreat blends character, comfort, and creativity. Surrounded by 53 acres of open green space, you'll enjoy peaceful access to parks, a scenic pond, tennis and basketball courts, and a whimsical playground. Just minutes from the Rollins Savanna Forest Preserve trail system and a nearby Metra station, this home offers an easy connection to both nature and city life. Spend weekends exploring the nearby farmer's market and the historic downtown, where local art, food, and music make every outing feel like a mini escape. Inside, the home's warm hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings, and natural light create an inspiring canvas for daily living. The flexible layout features a separate living and dining space, perfect for gatherings or quiet moments. A bright three-season sunroom opens to a spacious, fenced backyard and patio-ideal for outdoor dining or studio space. With three bedrooms featuring single French doors, 1.5 bathrooms, and a generous basement ready for your creative vision, this home invites you to make it your own.
