MULTIPLE OFFERS RECEIVED, HIGHEST & BEST OFFERS ARE DUE BY NOON ON SUNDAY, 6/23. Situated on almost 3/4 of an acre of land, this beautiful 3 bedroom, 2 bath ranch-style home is located just steps to renowned Cantigny Golf Course. This home was the former art studio of Colonel Robert McCormick's first wife, Amy. She referred to the home as the Bois de Madame and enjoyed painting near the large north-facing window. Currently, the north window faces out to a beautiful Koi pond complete with water lilies. Just past the Koi pond, your view continues to the rolling green hills of Cantigny Golf Course. You enter the home through a mudroom that leads into the kitchen, the true heart of this home. The kitchen is a cook's dream with white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a double oven, granite countertops, copper farmhouse sink, and a spacious island. Just off the kitchen is a bright and sunny 4-season room. This south-facing space features a gas-log stove and gorgeous wood paneled ceiling. The current owners use this space as a combination dining room and family room. The living room features views of the Koi pond, and has a wood-burning fireplace and plenty of space to stretch out and entertain. Just off the family room are 2 bedrooms that share an updated bathroom. The primary bedroom has a private en-suite bathroom that was renovated in 2023 with the local design group, Brass & Oak. The renovation includes a beautiful oak double vanity and a large walk-in shower. The green bathroom accents are a stunning nod to the Art Deco period when the original home was built. The laundry is currently located in the basement of the home, but a hallway closet could potentially be converted for 1st floor laundry. The home has a 2-car detached garage, a storage shed, and plenty of place for outdoor play within the fenced yard. The property has a secluded feel, while being close to all the conveniences of life in Wheaton.
