About this home
This exceptional custom home, built in 2005 and thoughtfully maintained by its original owners, showcases timeless Nantucket-inspired architecture with a refined cedar shake facade, elegant bluestone walkway, and a gracious covered front porch-perfect for outdoor entertaining. Set on an oversized 65x151 lot along a quiet, low-traffic street, the home enjoys picturesque views overlooking the 8th hole of La Grange Country Club, offering a rare combination of privacy and scenic surroundings. Its prime location places you just moments from local club pools, parks, the Stone Avenue train station with direct access to the city, and the vibrant West End business district as well as downtown La Grange. Designed for both entertaining and comfortable everyday living, the home features a seamless circular floor plan enhanced by rich Brazilian cherry hardwood floors, soaring 9-foot ceilings and intricate stacked crown moldings. A welcoming foyer introduces a formal dining room with French doors opening to the front porch, a well-appointed butler's pantry, and a private study with French doors. The central hall leads to a beautifully scaled family room with a wood-burning fireplace with gas starter and custom built-ins. The chef's kitchen is a true showpiece, appointed with quartz countertops, dual islands, a walk-in pantry, dedicated office nook and an inviting breakfast area that flows effortlessly into the family room. A custom mudroom with built-in storage and a sun-drenched three-season room with vaulted ceilings complete the main level. Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms and three full baths include a luxurious primary suite featuring a walk-in closet and spa-inspired bath with vaulted ceilings, soaking tub, dual vanity and multi-jet shower. The convenient second floor laundry room completes the second floor space. The third level, currently configured as a fifth bedroom with sitting area, offers exceptional flexibility and is pre-plumbed for an additional bath. The expansive finished lower level further enhances the home's living space, offering an expansive recreation area, a dry bar, powder room and storage. Outdoors, the fully fenced yard is beautifully landscaped and anchored by a spacious private, paver patio-ideal for summer entertaining. A detached two-car garage includes an EV charging station for modern convenience and a unique drive through feature to pass through to the rear street.
