Property Description
This is NOT ON Happ Road-this is a flag-shaped lot tucked away from it all. A true private oasis and a hidden gem in the coveted New Trier school district, this home offers exceptional space, privacy, and quality-representing a massive value in today's market. Set at the end of a long, private drive on nearly half an acre of professionally landscaped gardens, this 3,400 sq ft residence is a rare find. Thoughtfully designed with an open, sun-drenched layout, it features a soaring sunroom with cathedral ceilings and skylights, expansive living and dining areas, and a beautifully appointed gourmet kitchen with granite counters, stainless steel appliances, a large island, butler's pantry, and charming garden windows. Enjoy seamless indoor-outdoor living with a generous deck, flagstone patio, and ambient lighting nestled in a lush, secluded backyard. The oversized primary suite offers a true retreat with two massive walk-in closets and a spa-inspired bath with quartz and travertine finishes. A guest suite with private en-suite bath, Craftsman-style staircase, radiant heated entry, and upstairs laundry add to the home's comfort and functionality. With a newer roof and skylights, every detail has been cared for-making this a move-in-ready, one-of-a-kind opportunity. Come see for yourself what photos can't capture-this one-of-a-kind home will exceed your expectations.
