A wonderful entertaining flow begins in the foyer, impressive with 11+ ceilings, gracious staircase and through view of the private backyard. Sumptuous ease emanates from grand, sunlit spaces reinforced by a soothing palette, oversized windows, magnificent millwork and 3 fireplaces: elegant dining and living rooms, library with cove ceiling, and spectacular great room open to a well-appointed, skylit kitchen boasting a 6-burner Viking range, 2 dishwashers, granite-topped counters and pull-up island. Upstairs are an in-law suite/office, luxurious master suite with marble bath, and 4 more spacious bedroom suites. An expansive bonus room with built-ins and full bath, and mostly-finished basement offer rooms and storage for every endeavor. Close to Woodfield Preserve, the landscaped 5.2 acres include bluestone patios, pool, pavilion, and a pool house, replete with a prep area for entertaining.
