Description

Set behind the gates of Wynstone on a secluded 1.36-acre wooded homesite, this extraordinary custom-built estate offers nearly 9,000 square feet of timeless luxury, exceptional craftsmanship, and remarkable versatility. Spanning four finished levels with seven bedrooms, seven full baths, and two half baths, the residence is designed to accommodate both grand-scale entertaining and comfortable everyday living, including multigenerational lifestyles. A stately stone-and-stucco exterior, circular driveway, mature landscaping, and two separate two-car garages create a commanding first impression. Inside, soaring ceilings, extensive millwork, multiple fireplaces, custom built-ins, and dramatic walls of windows fill the home with natural light while showcasing the private wooded setting. Thoughtful custom details, including hand-painted finishes and architectural millwork, add warmth, character, and timeless elegance throughout. At the heart of the home, the exquisite kitchen features premium appliances including a 48 inch Dacor dual fuel range with double ovens, extensive custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a large center island, beverage station, multiple refrigerators, dual dishwashers, warming drawer, and generous pantry space. Designed for effortless entertaining, the kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining areas, family room, hearth room, and screened porch, creating inviting spaces for gatherings large and small. The luxurious primary suite serves as a private retreat with a fireplace, spa-inspired bath, steam shower, soaking tub, dual vanities, and expansive custom closet space. The finished third level offers exceptional flexibility with a full bath and kitchenette/laundry area, ideal for a guest suite, studio, office, or bunk room. The walkout lower level is equally impressive, featuring a guest suite with en-suite bath and walk-in closet, fitness room, full bath, recreation and game areas, built-in bar with kitchenette, see-through fireplace, and multiple gathering spaces. Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated, the home also includes a newer premium cedar-shake roof, newer driveway, zoned HVAC, hardwood flooring, whole-home sound system wiring, multiple laundry areas, and abundant storage. Located within one of Illinois' most prestigious gated communities, residents enjoy the beauty, privacy, and security of Wynstone, home to the renowned Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course, with optional club amenities including dining, swimming, pickleball, tennis, and championship golf. Rarely does a home offer this level of scale, craftsmanship, flexibility, and enduring architectural character-an exceptional legacy estate designed to evolve with its owners for generations to come.
