Property Description
Elegant, meticulously maintained, custom 5 bed, 5.5 bath home on a nearly half acre lot in premiere East Kenilworth just steps to Lake Michigan. Gorgeous two-story entry welcomes you into expansive floor plan featuring grandly scaled rooms, beautiful hardwood floors, 10 foot ceilings with tasteful and timeless design. The first floor features an ideal floor plan with an open kitchen/breakfast room/ family room; a dining room just off the kitchen; a classic living room in the front and a stunning formal office. Across the back of the home are French doors overlooking the professionally landscaped yard and two screened porches, flooding the back rooms in light. The designer kitchen, with high-end appliances and an over-sized island, opens to the enormous, two-story grand family room with a built-in wet bar, custom bookshelves and centerpiece brick fireplace. The spectacular custom office is complete with a stunning coffered ceiling, grasscloth wall coverings, built-in book shelves and a wet bar: it is the home office of your dreams. Additional main floor amenities include a mudroom/laundry room, two powder rooms and an attached oversized 2-car epoxy-floored and heated garage. The gracious primary suite, on the second floor, has a large marble bath, a fireplace and a generous walk-in closet. Four additional second floor bedrooms include generous walk-in closets and ensuite baths; all are accessible from the front or back staircases. The vast third floor great room, with high ceilings, also has great views of Lake Michigan. The lower level includes a second finished great room, a wine cellar and half bath. One look in the mechanical room tells the story of a home that was incredibly well crafted and has been meticulously maintained. It was designed with over 8000 square feet of living space and set majestically back from the road. This classic Kenilworth home is steps away from the Kenilworth beach, close to New Trier High School and Kenilworth's Joseph Sears School (JK-8) and it sits on the iconic Sheridan Road in the heart of east Kenilworth.
