Property Description
The perfect entertainer's home-inside and out. Set on nearly an acre in a private, tree-lined setting, this Geneva residence offers dramatic architecture, modern updates, and an abundance of living spaces designed for gatherings of all kinds. A striking four-season room at the front of the home features floor-to-ceiling windows, stone boulder walls, and exposed beams, while a vaulted three-season room at the back opens directly to the pool and landscaped grounds. Inside, the updated kitchen serves as the home's hub with a large island, double ovens, coffee station, and walk-in pantry, connecting seamlessly to the living room and casual dining areas. The main floor also includes a family room and recreation room, providing flexibility for games, lounge space, or a pool table. In total, the home offers five distinct living areas on the main level plus a spacious upstairs family room-a rare versatility for both everyday living and entertaining. With 4 bedrooms and 4 full baths, every bedroom enjoys its own bath access. Two main-floor bedrooms with nearby full baths are ideal for guests, while upstairs the primary suite features heated bathroom floors, skylight, and walk-in closet. A second ensuite bedroom completes the upper level. The second floor family room/loft space could easily be converted to include additional second floor bedrooms if desired. Outdoors, enjoy a heated pool, updated patio with pergola and cook station, hot tub, fire pit, and lush landscaping-designed for both quiet enjoyment and lively gatherings. The 2-car garage includes a 400 sq ft workshop/hobby space, with potential to convert back to a 4-car garage. A huge 2 story shed, located at the rear of the grounds, is also included. Extensively renovated in 2017 with new kitchen and baths, roof, siding, windows, flooring, and more, plus recent mechanical upgrades including a new water heater (2024) and boiler (2021). Located in the highly sought-after Geneva school district and less than a mile from Sunset Park, downtown shops and dining, the train station, and Geneva Commons-this home offers the rare combination of space, privacy, and sophistication in one of Chicagoland's most desirable communities.
