While space abounds, the 7 bed/5 full bath/2 half bath compound is comfortably divided into a two-wing main home, separate carriage house with an efficiency apartment, expansive pool deck with brick fire pit, and a fun summer kitchen/man cave with the cozy atmosphere of a local bar and grill. The main home wows your guests with a dramatic front entrance, antique doors, copper gutters and stunning old Chicago brick accents while old-fashioned Southern charm invites them to stay with brick interior archways, outdoor alcoves for reading or relaxing, plus private covered balconies and porches tucked in throughout the design. The main house gourmet kitchen is outfitted with a new Subzero refrigerator, two Bosch dishwashers, Jenn-Aire cooktop, wine coolers, warming drawer and an oversized L-shaped granite island.
