Description

Welcome to 679 Birch Drive, a custom-built newer construction residence completed in 2022, set on over 0.4 acres on a quiet cul-de-sac and surrounded by the Forest Preserve and Skokie Country Club. A rare offering that combines luxury living, stunning design, and exceptional privacy just blocks from downtown Glencoe and West and Central Schools. The home offers 5,500 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space with 5 en-suite bedrooms, 5 full and 3 half baths, and a heated 3-car attached garage. A full masonry exterior of limestone and brick, paired with a DaVinci slate roof, reflects the level of construction and materials carried throughout. Inside, 10-foot ceilings and expansive windows fill the home with natural light across an open, highly functional layout. The kitchen is designed for both daily living and entertaining, with Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, quartzite surfaces, a large island with seating, walk-in pantry, butler's pantry, and a dedicated coffee station. A spacious mudroom includes built-ins and stackable laundry. The adjoining family room features a 13-foot coffered ceiling and opens seamlessly to the outdoor living space. A private office overlooks the backyard and secondary patio. A covered bluestone patio with fireplace, heaters, and TV provides an all-season outdoor retreat and overlooks a large, private yard, already plumbed for a pool. Upstairs, four en-suite bedrooms include a spacious primary suite with fireplace, sitting area, custom walk-in closet, and a marble bath with steam shower, soaking tub, heated towel rack, and skylight. A second-floor laundry room adds everyday convenience. The lower level offers exceptional flexibility with a golf simulator / sport court, expansive recreation space with wet bar, fifth en-suite bedroom, and additional room for gym or playroom. Radiant heated floors throughout the first floor, basement, garage, and all full baths, along with a whole-house generator and sprinkler system, complete a home defined by exceptional construction, thoughtful design, and enduring quality.

    "The schools here are great. Tariff Center offers something for everyone. There’s a few great grocery stores and you’re close to the beach. Most of all it’s a quiet and safe area to live in. And as a bonus, Glencoe is close to Ravinia to see concerts and near to Highland Park. "
