Property Description

**A rare opportunity to own this magnificent, one-owner stone and brick masterpiece. Nestled on a spectacularly landscaped 1.34 acres with breathtaking views of a serene prairie and a private walking path just steps from your door, this stunning modern-updated estate spans an impressive 9,600 square feet. Elegantly designed to live like a ranch while offering expansive spaces for effortless entertaining, this is the perfect house for entertaining - where each space flows seamlessly into the next, and every room is more perfect than the last. The home faces west, framing dramatic sunsets that paint the sky in vibrant hues each evening, turning every gathering into a memorable spectacle. Step inside through magnificent front entry doors to a gracious foyer that opens to the soaring-ceilinged great room - a true showpiece with a marble wet bar, a wall of windows capturing endless prairie vistas, and an exquisite double-sided fireplace that invites conversation from every angle. The heart of the home - and a host's dream - is the newly remodeled 2023 kitchen: miles of marble counters, sleek black cabinets with abundant storage, a dedicated coffee center, two dishwashers and sinks, top-tier appliances, a focal-point refrigerated wine closet, and an adjoining sitting room with a floating fireplace. Here, an accordion-style door system effortlessly dissolves the boundary between indoors and out, revealing a beautiful paved deck that runs nearly the full length of the house - perfect for al fresco dining, cocktails, or hosting under the open sky as the prairie glows at dusk. The first-floor primary suite is a private retreat for the hosts: a cozy sitting room, fireplace, wet bar, oversized walk-in closet, spa-like bath boasting double sinks, granite counters, and panoramic prairie views - even this personal oasis feels designed with entertaining in mind. Upstairs, discover five generous en-suite bedrooms plus an enormous bonus room ideal for a playroom, home office, art/yoga studio, or additional family lounge - each level elevating the experience further. The lower level delivers the ultimate in luxury living and entertaining: an inviting wet bar with kegerator for beer on tap, a dedicated theater area for movies or sports, a full gym, sauna, and an additional lavish full bath - the grand finale where every space is better than the last, ensuring guests linger long into the night. Recent updates ensure turnkey perfection, including a brand-new roof, gutters, and downspouts (2024), two new furnaces and A/C units, a completely rebuilt staircase with dramatic walkway (2020), heated 4-car garage, underground sprinklers, gated entry, brick driveway, and a newly remodeled mudroom with heated floors. This exceptional property offers endless potential for added amenities such as a pool, tennis court, or sports court, all while providing total privacy yet convenient proximity to top schools, Highway 41, and the charming communities of Highland Park and Deerfield. A very special, one-of-a-kind estate - the perfect house for entertaining, where every detail delights and every space impresses more than the one before. Welcome home!
