Property Description
Exquisitely beautiful inside and out, this lovely home impresses from its striking curb appeal to its luxurious interior. Set in the sought-after Ellwood Greens community, the backyard offers sweeping panoramic views of the 103-acre Riverwood Forest Preserve. Enjoy a park-like setting with wooded trails, the winding Kishwaukee River, scenic ponds, and both paved and natural paths, your own nature sanctuary just steps from home. Ornate gas-look-flickering carriage lighting, white brick front elevation, and inviting brick path and brick steps lead you to the double-black entry doors opening into the foyer with an eye-catching black lantern-look chandelier welcoming you. Gleaming hardwood flooring, white detailed wall accents and crown molding, stylish light fixtures, soft white linen curtains, white paneled doors, and appealing color schemes create an elegant, cozy interior feel. The Living Room graces this home with a grand bay window and an abundance of recessed lighting. White wainscoting and a candle stick-look chandelier highlights the Dining Room. Striking granite-like detail frames the Family Room's wood-burn fireplace. A custom-made reading nook with storage offers a quiet escape from busy life and a handmade wood free floating wall shelf offers a display of your favorite art and pictures. New Pella sliding glass doors open onto a wooded cedar deck with a covered pergola and ambient lighting. Relax with sunrise and sunset views, soothing nature sounds, and tranquil scenery-truly a rare find. The timeless kitchen hosts classic white cabinetry, soft-white Corian countertops, a pantry closet, built-in electric ovens with a modern mid-century vibe, and stainless-steel Bosch appliances, including a gas cooktop and LG refrigerator. Three wide windows, a new farmhouse-style light fixture, and continued crown molding with soft white drapery complete the inviting eat-in area. The laundry area features upper cabinets and ceramic tile flooring, plus a front-load Kenmore washer and dryer. A half-glass Therma-Tru service door provides direct access to the backyard oasis and brick walkway. The powder room includes a pedestal sink, coordinating toilet, tile flooring, and a black oval mirror. A delicately styled chandelier casts a warm glow, transforming the primary bedroom suite into a tranquil, soothing retreat. Custom closet organizers complete the walk-in closet. Lovely white vanities, separate undermounted white sinks, custom tiled floor-to-ceiling shower with glass divider, chrome fixtures, elaborate tray mirrors, and suspended dazzling lights create a luxury bath spa-like experience. Kohler toilet, hardwood and tiled flooring, complete this private bath space. Full wall closet system is in bedroom #2. Neutral striped painted accent wall and deep closet are in bedroom #3. A shared hall bath spotlight's Herringbone tile flooring, white subway wall and Kohler tub-shower surround, elegant soft gold fixtures, and a modern clean face vanity. The full unfinished basement has 200-amp circuit breaker box, copper plumbing, steel beams, water softener, utility sink, Aprilaire humidifier, and an active radon system. The heated garage comes completed with an epoxy coated floor, black farm-style light fixtures, gas heater, and pull-down attic steps that lead to a huge unfinished attic. Recent owner improvements are Pella sliding glass door in 2025, Lennox furnace and Aprilaire humidifier in 2022, Kenmore front load washer and dryer in 2022, air conditioning system in 2020, and LG stainless steel refrigerator in 2019. Additional updates include a new primary bedroom bath fan/light, updated foyer, and hall bath fixtures, and refreshed professional landscaping. Did you know that this setting is over 1/3 of an acre?
