    What's special

    A once in a lifetime opportunity. This beloved La Grange property is on the market for the first time in 25 years. This 1887 beauty and the amazing yard have been lovingly restored and meticulously maintained. This home is an absolute joy to tour with craftmanship that rarely gets repeated today. Walking into the oversized foyer, your eye instantly goes to the ceiling - a beautiful mural that was hand painted by a previous owner of this home. The spacious living, dining, family and sun rooms blend seamless together, providing the home with a versatile and open layout. In the living room is a charming gas fireplace. The sunroom, an enclosed porch, is a sunny area to entertain or just enjoy the view. The family room is a cozy spot to watch a movie. The woodwork and detailing are stunning throughout the home, the wood floors are gorgeous and the vast amount of windows give every room natural light and beautiful views of the grounds. The kitchen is definitely the heart of this home. The 2007 remodel included solid wood custom cabinetry with glass doors, Wolf oven and cooktop, copper sink, custom hood, custom light fixture over the island with room for 8 or more barstools, the LG refrigerator is newer addition. A secondary staircase provides easy access upstairs and the large adjacent mudroom has locker style storage, backyard access and a dumbwaiter elevator that is original to the house, how cool is that. On the second level is the primary suite in addition to 3 other bedrooms, linen closet, a guest bathroom and laundry room. The primary suite includes a large bedroom, walk in closet and private bathroom with a beautiful claw foot tub, pedestal sinks and a separate shower. The long hallway gives each bedroom privacy and a few of the rooms even have attached working sinks, a nod to the original construction. Above the portico and between the first and second floor is a gorgeous window filled room that was once used as an artist studio. Currently a den, it would be a lovely office as well. The third floor has high ceilings and contains 2 large bedrooms, a living area and a full bathroom. The finished basement provides a secondary kitchen which is a fantastic addition when entertaining a catered event. The newly finished wine cellar is charming and has room to host an intimate dinner or a tasting. While this home is absolutely amazing - the grounds are incredible. Situated on 3 separate lots, the property enjoys a 140' impressive frontage with a 150' deep yard. The stonework throughout is substantial with multiple retaining walls, curved entrances and an enclosed pergola over the stone patio. It is an entertainer's dream. The yard has been professionally landscaped and maintained. The possibilities for the expansive side yards are endless. The large fenced in garden is on the south side of the home, taking advantage of the best sun exposure. Above the 4 car garage is a full coach house with a living area, kitchen, and bath. It would be a fantastic, private office or a lovely guest suite. Very few homes in La Grange offer this caliber of home within such a private setting. A short walk leads you into downtown La Grange, the Metra, schools and parks. Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to live in your forever home.
