Property description
This beautifully rebuilt, 4 bedroom (plus), 5 bath ranch with amazing lower-level living is nestled above the ravines and located next to an iconic Frank Lloyd Wright bridge. Taken to the studs in 2012, the home was entirely renovated by a North Shore designer with an eye for creating versatile space and a completely unique living environment. This light-filled home breathes nature, calm and comfort. Sophisticated finish details and features include walnut wide-plank floors, rockface stone feature walls, extensive custom built-in storage, and bonus swing spaces. The main level offers an open kitchen, dining, living area with a stone fireplace, coffered ceiling, and floor-to-ceiling windows to the ravines. The kitchen features high-end stainless appliances, stone countertops, rockface stone back-splash, and a built-in coffee bar. Off the kitchen is a back area with 1/2 bath, loads of custom built-in cabinetry, a mudroom area, and a laundry room. Off of the main living space is an open office/den area with a well-designed built-in workspace that leads to the 3 main-level bedrooms. The primary bedroom suite features a hallway lined with cabinets, a spa-like bathroom with a soaking tub, double sink, and separate shower, closets with custom built-ins, and built-in bedside tables with stone tops - no furniture needed! The second bedroom can be closed off with the hallway bath as an en-suite. The third bedroom is currently being used as an office and features a great built-in desk area. One of the truly beautiful features of this home is the walnut and metal rail staircase with a rockface stone feature wall leading to the lower level. The lower level features a stunning family room with loads of natural light, a built-in kitchenette, a second bedroom with a full bath, a swing space currently used as an additional bedroom, a home gym with a mirror, and powder room. The outdoor tiered patio space overlooking the ravine provides a tranquil retreat or divine entertaining venue. Tucked away in Northeast Glencoe, the location is ideal, private, and serene.
