    What's special

    Discover a rare opportunity to own an impeccably renovated and expanded home on one of La Grange's most sought-after blocks. This exceptional residence masterfully blends timeless character with modern conveniences, offering an unparalleled living experience. From the moment you step into the foyer, dramatic wainscoting, a gorgeous staircase, and generously-sized crown molding set the tone for the home's refined allure. The living room with decorative fireplace and built-ins exudes warmth and sophistication. Charming french doors open to a covered side porch. The formal dining room is perfect for hosting large gatherings, complete with custom built-ins for added character and functionality. The versatile office/sitting room with pocket doors leaves a lasting impression with its rich original woodwork. Masterfully expanded, the main level continues into the open-concept kitchen and family room. The chef's kitchen features custom cabinetry with smart organization throughout, quartzite countertops, expansive island with seating, beverage refrigerator, two dishwashers, and Thermador appliances. Flooded with natural light, the family room offers a gas burning fireplace and access to the covered side porch, while a spacious breakfast area leads to the private backyard. A thoughtfully designed mudroom with built-in storage, a large half bath, along with a convenient second staircase, complete the main floor. The second level features four generously sized bedrooms, each with its own unique charm, along with three well-appointed full bathrooms and a second-floor laundry room. The primary suite is a sanctuary, boasting a large walk-in closet and a luxurious spa-like bath with heated floors and a floating vanity with built-in storage and open shelving. The third floor offers two additional charming bedrooms, another full bathroom, and incredible potential to expand into large attic spaces. The finished basement is light and bright with lookout windows and also offers flexible space for a work-out room, general storage, or whatever fits your lifestyle. Set on a large, private lot, the professionally landscaped yard is perfect for relaxation and entertaining. Close to top-rated schools, parks, shopping, dining, train stations, and more, this a rare opportunity in the heart of La Grange.
