About this home
Offered for the first time, this extraordinary French-inspired residence is a rare offering in the Village of Glen Ellyn. Set back on a picturesque, tree-lined street, the home combines timeless architectural elegance with exceptional craftsmanship. A stunning bluestone terrace welcomes you with 10-foot double iron gate as a striking focal point. Encompassing more than 5,700 square feet above grade, plus a spectacular finished lower level, this grand residence was thoughtfully designed for both sophisticated entertaining and comfortable everyday living. Soaring ceilings, perfect proportions, exquisite architectural details, and an abundance of French doors and windows create a home that beautifully brings the outdoors in. The main level is anchored by an impressive gathering room featuring three sets of French doors opening directly to the bluestone terrace-an ideal setting for indoor-outdoor entertaining. The elegant dining room comfortably accommodates 14 guests, while a beautifully appointed private office with French doors provides a peaceful workspace with direct access to the outdoors. At the heart of the home is a gourmet kitchen designed for the most discerning chef. The expansive kitchen features an oversized island with seating, beverage drawers, abundant cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, warming drawer, double ovens, and a gas cooktop with griddle. The adjacent great room is truly spectacular, with soaring ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows creating an impressive backdrop for gatherings of any size. A beautifully appointed built-in bar with refrigerator and icemaker makes for effortless entertaining. The second level offers four spacious bedrooms, each with a private ensuite bath and walk-in closet. The luxurious primary suite is a true retreat, featuring separate his-and-her bathrooms, each leading to its own individual walk-in closet. Off the bedroom is a wet bar with beverage fridge and custom cabinetry. An upstairs laundry room, family room, and charming secret room tucked between two of the bedrooms add both convenience and an element of fun. The finished lower level takes the home to another level, offering remarkable storage and entertainment space, multiple wet bar areas, a pool table area, workout room, and a 600-bottle wine cellar. An extraordinary area excavated beneath the garage provides a great area for a theater room, which is a rare feature. A back staircase connects the lower level conveniently to the mudroom, further enhancing the home's thoughtful design. From its magnificent courtyard entrance and timeless French-inspired architecture to its exceptional kitchen, soaring great room, luxurious bedroom suites with 3 of the 4 suites having balconies, and extraordinary lower level, every element of this residence reflects thoughtful design and an appreciation for refined living....
