Property Description
This beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 3 full-bath home in the heart of historic Grayslake is a rare blend of timeless character and thoughtful modern updates. Built in 1914 and originally occupied by Mr. Slusser himself, the home sits on a generously sized lot surrounded by mature trees. Enjoy morning coffee on the enclosed front porch or unwind on the covered back deck (2017), overlooking the yard and a uniquely charming side-yard vineyard planted in 2018. Recent comprehensive tree trimming was completed to protect the home and structures, reflecting the owners' proactive care and maintenance. Inside, the main floor showcases original oak and pine flooring, classic trim, and built-ins that celebrate the home's historic roots, featuring two of the home's four bedrooms and a spacious office, ideal for remote work, creative projects, or everyday productivity. The stunning primary suite renovation (2018) features a spacious walk-in closet, double vanities, and a large walk-in shower with multiple shower heads. The custom kitchen is well-appointed with stainless steel appliances and a custom pantry, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The fully finished basement offers exceptional versatility with three bonus rooms, a full bath, and a full bar, perfect for gatherings, along with laundry and ample storage (new carpeting in 2020). Significant recent improvements include a repaired and restructured garage with a new back wall and roof, now accommodating up to three cars, as well as a newly added fence-perfect for dog owners. All of this is just a few blocks to Grays Lake, downtown restaurants, shopping, schools and community amenities, offering an outstanding lifestyle in one of Grayslake's most desirable locations. This is a truly special home-don't miss the opportunity to make it yours.
