Property Description
Exceptional Custom Home Backing to Belleau Woods Preserve Originally built in 1978 by Faganel Builders as his personal residence, this stunning home has been lovingly transformed and meticulously maintained by its current owners for the last 26 years. Thoughtfully designed from the start, it boasts 9-foot ceilings, gorgeous hardwood floors, and a classic shaker roof. In 2005/2008, a remarkable addition expanded the back of the home, creating an impressive chef's kitchen featuring a 12.5-foot island, 48 inch Wolf range w griddle, built-in refrigerator, dishwasher, and a striking copper sink, all under a beautifully crafted coffered ceiling. Just off the kitchen, a cozy sitting room with wall-to-wall windows offers the perfect space for after-dinner drinks or a stylish home office, overlooking the picturesque wooded setting. A spacious sunroom, bathed in natural light from floor-to-ceiling windows, provides serene views of the Belleau Woods Forest Preserve. Step outside to a gorgeous paver patio, which spans the length of the home and features a built-in plunge spa and fire pit, creating an ideal outdoor retreat. The family room exudes warmth and character with rich wood paneling, a wood-burning fireplace, and a convenient wet bar. Nearby, a first-floor laundry room and half bath are perfectly situated next to the three-car tandem garage. The inviting living room with custom built-ins and a sophisticated den with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves flank the foyer, adding timeless elegance to the main level. Upstairs, refinished hardwood floors and fresh paint lead to four generously sized bedrooms, each with ample closet space. The primary suite is a showstopper, featuring a newly renovated en-suite with a luxurious walk-in shower, quartz double vanity, and a custom walk-in closet. But the biggest surprise is a hidden fifth bedroom, added in 2008 above the garage. This versatile space includes an attached half bath, multiple closets, and a private balcony overlooking the backyard. With charming dormer windows and unique ceiling heights, this room offers endless possibilities-a guest suite, home office, gym, or game room-you decide! The finished basement provides additional living space, complete with a kitchenette featuring double ovens, a sink, and space for a refrigerator, plus a full bathroom and a large storage room. Situated on a private, tree-lined lot backing to lush forest, this home is perfectly positioned in South Wheaton, just minutes from top-rated Wheaton schools, Cantigny Golf Course, bike paths, shopping, and downtown Wheaton. A truly special home in an unbeatable location-don't miss this rare opportunity!
