Welcome to your newly rebuilt 5 bedroom, 5 1/2 bath home in Old Town, Western Springs. Upon entering you will be greeted with 10' ceilings and a full view of the first floor with the open staircase leading to the upper floors and basement. Modern light fixtures will enhance the light stained floors, the living area with fireplace, an eating area with bookend sconces and a luxury kitchen with a waterfall quartz island. This chefs kitchen is complete with a Wolf double oven and gas range top, a Sub Zero refrigerator/freezer, a beverage center, microwave and a large walk-in pantry. The island is large enough for five stools and will certainly become the heart of the home. Beyond the kitchen there is a private office with coffered ceiling and glass privacy door, a family room with sliding glass door, a powder room and a large mud room with built in seating and storage. The second floor consists of a romantic primary suite with an electric fireplace, en-suite spa bath and walk in closet. The laundry is easily accessible in the hallway where you'll find your three bedrooms, one with their own private bath and another bathroom for the other 2 rooms to share. Another set of stairs will lead you to the expansive 5th bedroom suite. This floor has the opportunity to become another primary suite with room for a sitting area or office and includes its own private bathroom. Taking the stairs down to the basement you'll have the opportunity to view the light and airy feel of the home and appreciate the crown molding and wall features. The basement is the perfect space for relaxation. Large enough to design a movie viewing space and an exercise room. There is also a surprise wine cellar to house all your favorite vintages and another full bathroom. The entire home is hardwired with the latest Cat6 network technology and the media closet can be found in the basement. A tankless water heater, Nest thermostats for zoned heating/ac and low-e Pella windows have been installed for green efficiency. Smart home details included are a Ring doorbell and wifi controlled lights in Living, Office, and Primary bedroom. The home is located in a prime Western Springs neighborhood, minutes to schools, forest preserve, parks and their wonderful downtown area with access to the Metra commuter train.
