Description

Perched on a raised lot overlooking Sleepy Hollow Park, this stunning red brick and Hardie board colonial blends classic charm with sophisticated updates in an unbeatable walk-to-everything location-just steps from the revitalized downtown Glenview and Metra station. A picturesque bluestone path leads to the covered front entry and into a warm, center foyer. The main level boasts a thoughtful layout ideal for everyday living and effortless entertaining. To the left, the formal living room radiates character with dark-stained hardwood floors, rich woodwork including crown molding and wainscoting, oversized Marvin windows, and a gas log fireplace with a traditional colonial mantel-complete with TV hookup above. To the right, the elegant and expansive dining room is a showstopper, featuring beam ceilings, crown molding, and a designer Serena & Lily chandelier. This space flows seamlessly into the heart of the home: a recently refreshed chef's kitchen outfitted with beautiful white in-set cabinetry, a navy center island, quartz countertops, and a chic subway tile backsplash with accent tile above the cook-top. A sunny breakfast area, planning desk, and generous pantry space make this kitchen both stylish and functional. The adjacent family room offers walls of built-ins for storage and display, recessed lighting, crown molding, and sliding doors that open to a maturely landscaped backyard with a aggregate patio, multiple seating areas, and a covered grilling station with natural gas line-perfect for summer gatherings. An updated powder room with beadboard trim and a raised vanity completes the main level. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms and two luxurious bathrooms. The serene primary suite features hardwood floors and two custom closets-including a spacious walk-in. The spa-like en-suite bath impresses with Carrara marble finishes, wainscoting, an oversized shower with bench, rain head, and handheld, a freestanding soaking tub with custom storage, and a custom double vanity with tower cabinet. The hall bath, also beautifully updated, includes a compartmentalized layout with basketweave marble flooring, a double sink vanity with quartz countertop, and a large shower with classic beveled subway tile and marble accents. The fully finished basement adds exceptional living space with wood-look tile flooring, a family room with wall of custom built-ins and plenty of play space. A large laundry and storage room with polyurea flooring, front-load washer and dryer, utility sink, and ample storage ensures functionality and organization. This turnkey home offers refined living in one of Glenview's most sought-after locations-where timeless style meets everyday convenience.
