About This Home

As of June 2025

Set in a prime Glencoe location near downtown, parks, and top-rated schools, this 5-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home is packed with thoughtful upgrades inside and out. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring high-end Thermador appliances, an oversized island, quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, a wine fridge, and a pot filler for added convenience. Designed for easy living and entertaining, the kitchen flows into the sunlit family room, where a floor-to-ceiling marble gas fireplace serves as a striking focal point. A private home office with custom built-ins offers the perfect space for working from home, while the mudroom with built-in storage and an LG washer/dryer keeps everything organized. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms provide room for everyone, including the luxurious primary suite. Unwind in the spa-like bath, featuring a cast iron soaking tub, an oversized shower with a rainfall head and body sprays, a custom double vanity, and hexagon marble flooring. A second full bath with modern finishes serves the additional bedrooms. The fully finished basement offers endless possibilities, with two expansive living areas, a built-in stage for kids, swing hooks, a treehouse-style play nook, and unique play area under the stairs. A great in-law opportunity on this level with a full bedroom with a walk-in closet and a full bath. Head outside to the huge, fully fenced backyard-an outdoor oasis designed for year-round enjoyment. The pergola is equipped with five built-in heaters, while a gas line to the Weber grill ensures you never run out of fuel during cookouts. Gather around the custom firepit, relax in the six-person barrel sauna, or let little ones enjoy the playset in this beautifully upgraded yard. With downtown Glencoe, five parks, Glencoe Beach, and highly rated schools all just minutes away, this home offers the perfect blend of luxury, convenience, and community.
