Stunning River Forest home that seamlessly combines modern luxury with timeless charm. A full-scale renovation with classic architectural details, nearly every detail was renewed. Mechanicals, electrical, plumbing, insulation, windows, roof (2024), gutters, flooring, kitchen, and baths. All enhanced by custom millwork throughout, copper water service in, and a new drain line out. At the heart of the home is a chef's kitchen boasting custom cabinetry, a 48" Wolf range, dual dishwashers, and twin 36" side-by-side refrigerator and freezer, Wolf Warming drawer, ice maker and a Viking wine fridge. French doors lead to an outdoor kitchen, patio, and a resort-style pool and hot tub by Barrington Pools. Wired for sound inside and out, this house was built for entertaining. The inviting living room offers park views and a gas log fireplace. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a serene primary suite with walk-in closet and private bath with heated floors, plus two additional bedrooms sharing a spa-inspired hall bath also with heated floors. The finished lower level includes a spacious rec room with a second fireplace, full bath with heated flooring (functions as pool house bath with basement egress), and plumbing rough-in for a wet bar. Large egress staircase walks out from laundry room and up to pool area. Everyday comforts include a heated driveway, attached heated two-car garage, and a well-designed floor plan. Located in the sought-after Willard Elementary School district and walking distance to dining along North Avenue's "Restaurant Row" this home delivers both elegance and convenience.
