Property Details

Welcome to this grand and glorious mid-century modern masterpiece, brimming with sophisticated amenities, and serenely set on a wooded paradise in a choice Highland Park neighborhood! Step inside to discover an open, flowing floorplan, ideal for both elegant entertaining and comfortable living. Walls of windows bathe the space in natural light, and provide exquisite views of the peaceful, landscaped 1.26 acre lot. The covered entryway will protect your arriving guests from inclement weather. The sun-splashed foyer is enhanced with tiled flooring, a bright sidelight window. The sophisticated living room is accented with maple hardwood flooring, a vast window overlooking the backyard, and a moodsetting gas fireplace. Your guests will move easily to the formal dining room, fearing built-in cabinets. The gorgeous kitchen has been stylishly updated with abundant maple and cherry custom-designed cabinetry, Brazilian marble countertops, and a large breakfast bar. Enjoy top-of-the line stainless steel appliances, and sunshine spills in from four sparkling skylights. The mudroom is steps away, and has plenty of storage cubbies, as well as access to the garage and to the entertainment-sized two-tiered deck.

A flexible home office/study is adjacent to the foyer, and is enhanced with functional built-ins, recessed lighting, and corner windows. This flexible space could be used as a bedroom to suit the changing needs of your household, and there is a guest half bath with basin sink nearby. Escape to the spacious owner’s suite to find a bedroom with soft neutral carpet, two generous closets, and an ornamental fireplace. Large windows offer treetop views of the backyard, and there is a private, ceramic tiled full bath with vanity. Two additional bedrooms are found on the main level, each with soft-on-your-feet neutral carpet, large closets, and fabulous built-ins. The bedrooms share an updated contemporary three-quarter bath, featuring a vanity with dual sinks, and a large step-in shower.

Travel to the lower level to find a grand and glorious family room, with new carpet in 2024 and a wall of windows to provide plenty of sunshine. The three-sided decorative fireplace divides the space, creating a separate area for an exercise room or a playroom.

The fully fenced backyard is a true “Garden of Eden,” with lush landscaping, level areas for lawn games, a hockey rink or future pool, and designer gardens with native plants to attract pollinators. The mature trees screen the yard for privacy and create a peaceful setting for relaxation. Outdoor entertaining space includes a two-tiered cedar deck with lighting, and a patio that is easily accessed from the lower level kitchen for meal prep for your backyard picnics and parties. Under the deck you’ll find an enclosed shed for potting and gardening or storing your lawn tools. Your cars will be protected in the attached 2- car garage, with epoxy flooring.
