Architect designed retreat in Trout Valley. 4-bedroom, 2.5 baths home on 0.76 hillside gem full of original mid-century modern design features-ask about the cool original '70s tile and hardwood floors hidden underneath the new luxury vinyl floors. Designed with intention by architects John and Diane Stitt, this 3,064-square-foot contemporary has been thoughtfully updated while preserving its original vision and distinctive materials: wood beams, exposed Chicago brick and floor-to-ceiling Andersen windows. The new white kitchen features granite counters, cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, double oven and beverage fridge. Spacious living room offers a striking wood-burning fireplace and sliding doors to the patio. A sun-filled atrium, open dining area and expansive decks overlook the private forest setting, while the flat front lawn gives you real room for yard games. The primary suite has its own fireplace, an updated ensuite bath, custom closet system and private balcony with long-range seasonal views. Two more bedrooms, a new full bath and a large family room that works as a fourth bedroom complete the floor. A spiral staircase leads to a skylit loft ideal for a home office. The oversized 2-car garage has extra space for a golf cart. Trout Valley living means private members-only amenities year-round: board your horse at the historic barn, launch your boat from the refurbished marina, play tennis and pickleball at the riverfront, fish the stocked ponds, swim at the community pool and gather at the Riverfront Lodge. Scenic Fox views and horses grazing greet you every drive home. Cary-Grove High School, Cary Country Club, Main Street shopping and dining, the public library and the Metra station are minutes away.
