Originally built in 1884 as a farmhouse, this beautifully renovated home blends timeless character with the comforts of modern luxury. Soaring 9-10' ceilings, rich hardwood floors, custom millwork, and oversized windows fill the home with warmth and natural light. You enter the home through an elegant living room featuring a gas fireplace with a White Macaubas quartzite hearth and custom built-ins. It flows naturally into the comfortable family room and the spacious dining room, a layout that is ideal for everyday living and entertaining. The chef's kitchen is equipped with premium Thermador and Wolf appliances, quartz countertops, and a spacious island. A functional mudroom leads to the deck and fully fenced backyard. You'll enjoy the gas line for grilling, the Rainbow playset, and the spacious two-car garage. Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite offers two walk-in closets and a spa-inspired bath, along with two additional spacious bedrooms, an updated hall bath, and a convenient second-floor laundry room. The bright ground-level lower level-with 9-foot ceilings and oversized windows-provides exceptional flexible living space, including a recreation/media room, home gym, fourth bedroom, and full bath, making it ideal for guests, a home office, or multigenerational living. Thoughtful upgrades include Lutron Caseta smart lighting, Hunter Douglas motorized shades, a Culligan water filtration system, dual-zone HVAC, a Trex front porch, a newer garage, a replaced PVC sewer line, and a 75-gallon water heater. Ideally located just minutes from Central Street's shops, restaurants, parks, and the Metra, this truly move-in-ready home offers the rare combination of historic charm, luxury finishes, and modern updates-without the expense or hassle of future renovations.
