A wonderful opportunity to own this beautiful classic home with mid-century charm, designed by notable architectural firm Perkins and Will. The home was built with style and functionality with a large expanse of glass window wall in the living room/dining room that greats you as you enter the home. Connecting to a brick patio and beautiful back yard retreat, the 200-foot lot, in a park like setting, offers opportunity for multiple outdoor enjoyment including fire pit, quiet lounging and children's playset. The living room area features wood burning fireplace and beautiful wall mural inspired by nature. The large eat-in kitchen offers high-end stainless appliances, abundant storage and Corian counters. Family room features a wall of custom built-in cabinets for storage and shelving to display multiple collections. A second wood burning fireplace and window wall with southern back yard exposure add warmth and appeal. There is potential to convert this space in to a first-floor master bedroom. A contemporary open stair case leads to 2nd floor with 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths. The homeowner has enhanced the beauty of the original solid surface flooring on this level thru the Japanese Kintsugi technique, a beautiful one of a kind feature, whereby gold is inlaid throughout the imperfections and sealed. A large primary bedroom with full bath and the 3rd and 4th bedrooms can be closed off from main hall to create private suite if desired. Plentiful storage options including a first-floor laundry room and attached 2 car garage. Original Perkins and Will plans are available.

Great lot and backyard. Downstairs bedroom has been converted to family room. Some of the bedrooms feel very tight. Busier street.

Incredible value for this classic mid century modern home by notable architect Perkins & Will set on a fantastic 200' deep lot nooked off Willow road for pure privacy! With a blank white canvas, this home could be transformed to a whole new level of enhanced design as it already has clean lines, open 1st floor & incredible light w/ southern exposures overlooking lush backyard. So many different avenues for this house as the center focal point once entering the home is the glass wall of oversized windows & french doors that make the whole space transparent from inside to out. Updated kitchen w/ breakfast area, 1st floor laundry & attached heated garage. Cozy den w/ wbfp could be flipped BACK to 1st floor master bed. Sunlit 2nd flr w/ atrium hallway w/ spacious master suite. 3rd/4th beds could be combined to make 2nd master suite area. So many flexible floor plan ideas as the build of this home is so solid w/ fine details. Steps to it all! TAXES JUST REDUCED BY OVER 2K!

Single-Family Residential District
The requirements set forth in this chapter, together with other provisions set forth in the Building Code of the Village, have been adopted in order to provide for a single-family residential environment of moderately intense suburban character, where the degree of improvements upon an individual parcel of land is generally subordinate to the landscape. Due to the mature character of development within this district, such requirements are also intended to assure that future modifications to existing structures, or the replacement of existing structures with new structures, will not alter the scale and general character of established neighborhoods. In this regard, the requirements set forth in this chapter are further intended to foster development which is compatible, in general, with the character of existing single-family development within the immediate neighborhood with respect to external architectural scale, landscaping and other site improvements.
