Description
This extraordinary Northbrook home is a masterpiece of design and functionality. From the moment you arrive, the stately pillars and flagstone walkway leading to the arched, solid-oak double doors set the tone for what lies beyond. Inside, the dramatic two-story foyer welcomes you with vaulted ceilings, architectural beams and an abundance of natural light streaming through skylights and cathedral windows. The heart of the home is the breathtaking two-story family room, featuring a striking floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace-a true centerpiece-surrounded by oversized windows that bathe the space in sunlight. French doors seamlessly connect this gathering space to a charming stone patio and the lushly landscaped backyard, offering a perfect blend of indoor and outdoor living. The kitchen is a chef’s dream, boasting professional-grade appliances, SubZero, Thermador, Bosch and JennAir – a generous center island, walk-in pantry, and multiple workstations. A sunlit eating area adds to the charm, making it a hub for family gatherings. Adjacent to the kitchen is a mudroom with cubbies, a second staircase, and convenient access to the attached three-car garage. This home is as functional as it is beautiful, offering versatile spaces like the main floor bedroom (or office) with an ensuite bath and private terrace. Upstairs, the primary suite is a private retreat with volume ceilings, a serene balcony, and a spa-inspired bath featuring a jacuzzi, steam shower, and dual walk-in closets. Three additional bedrooms on this level each include walk-in closets and ensuite or connecting baths, ensuring comfort and privacy. For the visionary buyer, the expansive 72-foot-long lower level is a blank canvas, ready to be transformed into a recreation area, gym, theater, or additional living space. The outdoor spaces are equally impressive, with four distinct entertainment areas, a landscaped yard filled with mature trees and colorful perennials, and an underground sprinkler system. Located on a picturesque, tree-lined street set back from Shermer Road, this home offers both privacy and convenience, just blocks from the heart of Northbrook. Blending iconic architectural details with modern luxury, this one-of-a-kind home is truly a sanctuary for those who appreciate craftsmanship, style, and space.
