Property Description
Nestled serenely along a picturesque, tree-lined street within the sought-after Forest Hills neighborhood, this colonial-style residence effortlessly harmonizes unique character, timeless charm, and contemporary comforts. As you enter the enchanting foyer, it becomes clear that this is not just a passageway but a captivating introduction to a home brimming with character, charm, and love. Every detail, from the hardwood floors beneath your feet to the archways and classic lighting above, tells a story of a house ready to embrace new stories and cherished memories. The kitchen embodies modern elegance and luxury, with brand-new custom white cabinetry meticulously designed to marry style and functionality. Sunlight bathes the space, creating a culinary sanctuary that is both beautiful and practical. A sliding glass door from the breakfast area leads to a spacious brick paver patio, extending a warm invitation to enjoy outdoor relaxation and entertainment in the serene and private backyard. Throughout the home, large windows, original hardwood floors, and original fireplaces contribute to its stunning appeal. The elegant floor plan connects the sun-drenched kitchen, dining, and family rooms, while the living room showcases the original wood-burning fireplace. Additionally, the first floor encompasses a private office, a powder room, and a mudroom. The second floor welcomes you with a primary bedroom featuring an ensuite marble bathroom adorned with double vanities, and a soothing soaking tub and steam shower. Walk-in closets provide ample storage space. An additional tranquil private office, three generously sized bedrooms, a hall bath, and a convenient second-floor laundry room complete this level. Descend to the lower level, where the home's hidden gem awaits: a London-style pub that transports you to the cozy ambiance of an English tavern. Brakur mahogany wood built-in bookcases, a coffered 12-foot ceiling, and an impressive bar create an inviting space for hosting gatherings with family and friends. Additionally, the lower level offers a rec room with a second wood-burning fireplace, a game room, and a powder room. Complementing this charming abode is an exceptional lot size, measuring 60 x 187, and an oversized 2.5-car garage with abundant storage. Ideally situated in the heart of Western Springs, it's just a short walk to Forest Hills Elementary or St. John of the Cross schools. This home is a remarkable opportunity that should not be missed.
