About This Home

As of May 2026

Welcome to this stunning Cherry Valley home where thoughtful design meets everyday functionality. Soaring volume ceilings in the great room create a dramatic first impression, flooding the space with natural light and an undeniable sense of grandeur. The main floor master ensuite offers a private retreat, while a sun-drenched sunroom off the kitchen provides the perfect spot to unwind with your morning coffee. Main floor laundry adds everyday convenience, and the open loft delivers flexible space for a home office or creative studio. The finished walk-out lower level is a showstopper, featuring a fourth bedroom, full second kitchen, additional bath, and its own laundry — ideal for multigenerational living or hosting guests in style. Step outside to a spacious fenced yard backed by the serenity of nearby Espenscheid Memorial Forest Preserve, just moments from your doorstep. Energy-conscious homeowners will appreciate the solar panels, while the oversized three-car garage handles vehicles, storage, and weekend projects with ease. Major updates including the roof, furnace, and A/C — all completed in 2018 — provide peace of mind for years to come. Conveniently situated near Interstate access, shopping, schools and parks, this location strikes the perfect balance between peaceful suburban living and modern convenience.
