Description

A timeless retreat where custom-built luxury meets serene pond views and a cascading waterfall. Set on 3.107 private acres, this stately Palos Park estate offers an impressive 11,537 sq ft of total living space across four expansive levels-designed for multi-generational living, elegant entertaining, and future flexibility. Built from the ground up in 2000, the home welcomes you with a grand arched double-door entry and an expansive brick-paved circular driveway, leading to a 3-car garage with additional outdoor parking for 3+ vehicles. Inside, natural light pours through large arched windows into a soaring great room with 20+ ft ceilings. The adjacent vaulted family room features a cozy gas fireplace, perfect for gatherings. A sixth bedroom currently serves as a richly finished library with floor-to-ceiling built-ins, solid wood doors, and a coffered wood ceiling. The kitchen offers generous space and natural light, with granite countertops, ample cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, and a vaulted octagonal breakfast nook surrounded by windows-overlooking the deck and offering peaceful views of the pond and cascading waterfall. KEY FEATURES Include: 6 bedrooms | 3 full baths | 1 half bath Dual primary/in-law suites on both main and second floors, each with walk-in closets and en-suite baths Spa-inspired main-level primary bath with a gas fireplace shared between the bedroom and bathroom, jetted tub, and oversized walk-in shower Laundry rooms on both the main and second floors Rough-in plumbing for a fourth full bath in an upper-level bedroom (originally intended as an en-suite) and another in the lower level Full walk-out basement with 2,753 sq ft of unfinished space and exterior access 714 sq ft attic level, ideal for a gym, studio, or future expansion Radiant floor heating on the main level Roof completely redone in 2020 Underground sprinkler system and extensive hardscaping Dedicated space allocated for a future elevator installation The professionally landscaped grounds include brick-paved front entry, walkways, and a rear patio. A tranquil pond serves as the centerpiece of the backyard, enhanced by a professionally installed cascading waterfall and ambient lighting system-a landscape investment valued at approximately $200,000. The pond is bordered by mild natural wetland, adding to the property's privacy and peaceful ambiance. Outdoor living spaces include a deck off the family room and kitchen, a private balcony off the main-level primary suite, and a brick patio accessed from the walk-out lower level-all designed for seamless indoor-outdoor enjoyment. Located just 0.6 miles from the Palos Park Metra Station, and minutes to Northwestern Medicine Palos Hospital, forest preserves, top-rated schools, and I-294. A rare and refined sanctuary where timeless design, open space, and natural beauty converge.
