Fantastic mid-century modern house designed by noted architect Paul Schweikher, addition by Keck & Keck. There is no other house like this anywhere! Natural materials, interior courtyard, terrazo floors, abundant light, huge wood deck. Asian zen architecture. Circular brick fireplace in LR. Featured in Chi Trib 3/9/08. On the National Register but there's no local landmark ordinance to protect or restrict it. Potential tax incentives for restoration. Needs a new roof, tuck pointing, water heater, washer/dryer and refrigerator. Gorgeous location across from Lake Ellyn park. Short Sale. As-Is.
