Description

This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from July 08, 2023
Welcome to this picturesque All-Brick French provincial home located on an acre+ of land, situated across from the private Cantigny Park. The property is a perfect blend of urban and suburban living, as it is just a short distance from downtown Wheaton, shops and restaurants, yet it still provides a sense of privacy and seclusion. The landscape is simply breathtaking, featuring an array of perennials, fruit trees, a custom fenced garden, and mature trees that attract wildlife such as deer and birds, making it feel like your own private retreat. The grandeur of this home doesn't stop at the curb! As you enter through the front door, the two-story foyer will leave you in awe with its grand entrance. The attention to detail and overall design of the space will surely impress any visitor.The layout of the main floor maximizes space and functionality. The split living room and dining room provide separate areas for entertaining and enjoyment of family gatherings, while the chef's kitchen is perfectly appointed with high-end finishes and appliances. The adjacent family room features a cozy, refinished all brick fireplace and custom built-in shelving. A newly built wet bar with waterfall quartz counters adds an extra touch of luxury to this already impressive space.In addition to the main living areas, there is an additional bedroom/ office/ flex space off the living area that is a great bonus to this home, giving the owner even more flexibility in how they utilize the space. Attached two car garage with epoxy flooring leads you into the newly remodeled mudroom with waterfall quartz counters and custom shelving, which is a wonderful feature providing a convenient and practical space for day - to- day living. Overall, the combination of beautiful design and functional features truly make this home a stand out. The second floor is just as impressive as the first, featuring a completely remodeled primary suite. The suite includes all marble floors and walls, a floating double sink vanity, a back LED-lit wall, and a complete glass enclosure shower. These luxurious upgrades create a spa-like atmosphere, perfect for unwinding after a long day. In addition there are two additional bedrooms and a full hallway bath. Both bedrooms offer ample space and generous closet space to accommodate your needs. The well-designed layout of this floor ensures comfortable living for everyone in the home. The second floor is complete with all new stunning light fixtures that complete the space. The alluring design of this basement makes it a unique space that brings the outside in and feels like you are on the top floor with tremendous light effects and bright space. Offering a separate entrance that makes it a work-from home setup, an in-law arrangement, or even a separate apartment with its own private entrance. The fully remodeled second kitchen with quartz counters, all brick fireplace and separate custom-built grill that vents outside creates a warm and inviting space.

The ample storage space is perfect for storing all your belongings, and the layout ensures maximum comfort and privacy for everyone in the home. The lower level truly provides a seamless living experience and adds tremendous value to this already magnificent home.The value of this is property is an excellent opportunity not just in the physical structure, but also in the land it sits on.
