Pictures do not do this home justice. With unobstructed views from the windows and sliding glass doors there is a seamless flow between the indoors and outdoors, overlooking the backyard and WATERFRONT. Lush landscaping and a quiet setting provide plenty of privacy, creating the perfect sanctuary which include perennials, fruit trees, herb garden, and a patio overlooking a sparkling pond. This meticulous home was extensively remodeled with additions in 2011-2012. The recently remodeled kitchen, showcased in the latest edition of SW LAKE MAGAZINE, boasts many stunning features. It includes cherry cabinets, a wall of glass-front built-ins, a generously sized island with granite counters, and all high-end stainless appliances, including a warming drawer, dual sinks, and both under-cabinet and recessed lighting. With fantastic pond views, the kitchen seamlessly opens to the spacious family room, complete with a fireplace and additional views of the lush gardens and pond. Adjacent to the kitchen, a hallway leads to a powder room, a pantry/laundry area, and a sunroom that houses a Michael Phelps swim spa and Jacuzzi hot tub. This sunroom is equipped with impressive lighting and a dedicated dry heat system to maintain optimal temperature and humidity levels, isolated from the rest of the home. Also during the remodel, a back staircase was added which leads to a dramatic bonus room with two-story cathedral ceiling, and a wall filled with custom geometric windows to enjoy the stunning views. Included on the second floor is a new screened porch which also provides views of the pond and gardens. Additionally, this level houses four spacious bedrooms, two renovated bathrooms, including the primary suite with two roomy closets and a luxurious bath featuring an oversized steam shower, dual cherry vanities, and a heated tile floor. The full finished basement offers a versatile space for gaming, entertainment, or a peaceful read by the fireplace. The basement features oak cabinetry, a wet bar with reverse osmosis, a Heatilator fireplace, and a full bath. Stairs were added from the basement to the brick paver patio/yard, perfect for entertaining. The property also includes a Generac gas generator, solar panels on the roof, a paver walkway, a driveway, and a new standalone one-car garage which is addition to the attached 2 car garage. Award-winning Libertyville schools, convenient access to highways and shopping, further enhance the appeal of this home.
This home is truly well maintained and feels like a private vacation paradise. Everything you could want for a staycation...is at this home. Low traffic street in quiet established subdivision. Views of nature, trees, gardens and large pond from...
every window.
