A beautiful rural setting yet just a stones throw from the charming downtown area. This home welcomes you with the elegance of lovely wood floors throughout the 1st floor and a cozy fireplace. The updated kitchen has all stainless steel appliances boasting a high end Wolf refrigerator and stove as well as granite counters and space for an eat in kitchen table. The 2nd floor offers very generous sized bedrooms with a master en suite that includes a huge walk in closet. You're sure to enjoy the large dry basement with plenty of room for the family to relax or play and the egress window offers even more options to suit your needs. The tranquility of this large lot will have you sitting on the deck under the retractable awning peacefully enjoying your morning coffee and perhaps doing a little day dreaming. At the back of the splendid landscape you'll notice the large shed with overhead storage and a cute play set that will stay if you like. You may have noticed the brand new driveway as you approached. This was a complete tear out just this year. The roof is only 3 years old and all the windows have been replaced since 2015. Rounding off this delightful home are the highly rated schools and low taxes of this unincorporated area yet only a mile and a half to the Metra station and town. Not to forget, only a few miles to Lake Bluff Beach & Sunrise Park on Lake Michigan.
