About this home
Welcome to this beautifully crafted modern farmhouse in coveted Old Town Western Springs. Custom built in 2012 this home showcases timeless design and high-end craftsmanship throughout, including 3" hardwood floors, striking millwork, coffered ceilings, and designer finishes. The chef's kitchen anchors the main level with a large center island, stainless steel appliances, butler's pantry with beverage center, and newly updated countertops and backsplash. Nearly every room has been thoughtfully enhanced by a private Chicago interior designer in recent years with custom lighting, wallpaper, paint selections, and window treatments. The open-concept first floor offers exceptional flow and functionality, featuring an oversized office/living room, formal dining room, and a family room with fireplace open to the kitchen and breakfast area. Four finished levels provide flexibility for today's living. The second floor includes four spacious bedrooms. The primary suite offers a refreshed spa-like bath and oversized walk-in closet. Two bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath with private vanities, while the fourth enjoys its own en suite. The third floor provides a fifth bedroom or ideal home office. The lower level is seamlessly integrated via two open staircases and features a recreation room with built-ins, wet bar, full bath, exercise room with Murphy bed (perfect as a sixth guest space), and a temperature-controlled wine cellar. Additional highlights include dual-zoned HVAC, first-floor laundry and mudroom, and a professionally landscaped, fenced yard with built-in firepit. Ideally located near Laidlaw Elementary, Sereda Park, downtown Western Springs, expressways, pool, theater, and rec center. A rare, turnkey luxury opportunity....
