Property Description
Classic Georgian elegance meets delightfully unique living in this stunning La Grange home. From the moment you step inside, the home's character and charm are undeniable, beginning with a beautiful living room anchored by a cozy wood-burning fireplace. A separate dining room, complete with original built-ins and French doors, adds to the timeless warmth and architectural appeal. Just beyond, the home takes a wonderfully unexpected turn. An extraordinary Great Room completely transforms the living experience, featuring soaring vaulted ceilings, dramatic skylights that flood the space with natural light, a gas fireplace, and custom built-in shelving - creating a room that is equal parts impressive and inviting. It's the kind of space you simply don't expect to find in a classic Georgian - perfect for everyday living, entertaining, or cozy evenings at home. Just off this remarkable space, a cheerful eat-in kitchen offers stainless steel appliances, under-cabinet lighting, and direct access to the large, private backyard. Completing the first floor are a convenient half bathroom, coat closet, and access to the attached garage. Upstairs, you'll find all four bedrooms, each with large closets, along with a well-appointed hall bathroom featuring a tub/shower combination. Tucked away for added privacy, the primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with its own ensuite bathroom and dramatic vaulted ceilings that enhance the sense of space and light. The finished basement provides outstanding flexibility for a recreation room, workout space, playroom, or additional entertaining area. Outside, the impressive backyard continues the home's appeal with a beautiful paver patio surrounded by mature landscaping - an ideal setting for summer barbecues, outdoor gatherings, or a quiet morning coffee. Ideally located close to downtown La Grange, the Stone Avenue Metra station, parks, retail, and award-winning schools including Cossitt Elementary, Park Junior High, and Lyons Township High School. This home offers the perfect blend of location, classic charm, and modern ease!
