About This Home
A car collector's dream! Five beautiful, wooded acres are the setting for this gracious 1930 all-brick home with four finished levels. The covered front porch evokes the charm of yesteryear, while spacious rooms, hardwood floors, cove molding, solid oak doors, and built-ins reflect timeless craftsmanship. There are four full baths, three fireplaces, and an amazing great room - "The Oak Room" - measuring 26 x 23 with a wet bar and fireplace. The finished basement includes a recreation room with fireplace and wet bar, plus a sixth bedroom. The attached three-car garage is tiled and heated, perfect for year-round use. This home is ideal for entertaining family and friends and offers versatility for the hobbyist, collector, or family business. Dual-zone HVAC systems were replaced in 2018 and 2023 and roof replaced in 2019. Two large heated outbuildings total over 11,000 square feet - one featuring a loft/retreat and 1.5 baths. The lot is wooded and level, great for creating additional recreational spaces such as a pool, sports court, or expanded outdoor living area. This well-maintained property offers endless opportunities to make it your own. Just minutes from St. Charles North High School, downtown St. Charles shopping and dining, and the Fox River Bluff West Forest Preserve with its scenic trails and river views. For almost 40 years, this home has been treasured and well cared for - now it awaits new owners to create their own memories in this remarkable setting. This property is being conveyed "AS IS" and priced below appraised value. Zoned Residential. See additional details.
