Every home has a story to tell... Seldom does a home of this stature and design become available. Start your new beginning at this magical 1996 rebuilt European Cottage. This extraordinary home exudes charm, grace, and classic elegance in every area. Massive in scale at approximately 8000 square feet of finished living space. A grand foyer with impressive arched doorways and an admirable turret. This custom build contains a spectacular picturesque garden, with two beautiful patios perfect for entertaining, near downtown Glen Ellyn. This stunning home boasts 5 bedrooms, 4 baths and 6 fireplaces. It has been built with the finest details and finishes which is like nothing you've ever seen. Spacious floorplan includes oversized family room, a bright and airy sunroom with a lot of natural light, a study and a (generous) first floor laundry room. A gourmet kitchen is a cook's dream, featuring an Aga chef's cook stove. Freshly painted white cabinetry, new backsplash, refurbished brick, and stained broad planked knotty pine hardwood floors. Master suite includes a luxe bath, jetted tub and walk in shower. Second entrance with private access to additional family room and leading to the second floor quarters. Finished lower level with plenty of storage and includes a game area and a potential theatre room-so many possibilities. This is certainly a home to be admired and treasured.
