About This Home
As of August 2023New listing in Whispering Oaks neighborhood!! Very cool mid-century modern ranch-style home, transformed by Balfor Lanza to an exciting contemporary home. The kitchen and family rooms are outstanding examples of the Usonian style the architect followed, where windows replace where walls would normally be, drawing in nature and natural light. The bedrooms all have bump out, three sided windows with ledges. Maintained to perfection with desirable features of vaulted ceilings, floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace in living room, home office on main level, large family room with walls of windows, potting room and second floor greenhouse. Partially finished basement with rec room, storage closets and built in dry bar, and huge unfinished storage room. Beautifully landscaped yard with lush perennials and wrap-around free form wood deck. Sellers prefer a mid August closing date. Fabulous location with close proximity to Cherokee Elementary School, hiking, biking and walking trails through the Forest Preserves and Openlands shoreline, the Metra and Highwood's fabulous restaurant district. Don't miss this one!
