Marvel at this magnificent home’s inspired blend of style, luxury, timeless elegance, comfort, functionality, brilliant architectural design and craftsmanship. On the market for the very first time, this is a rare opportunity to own one of Crystal Lake’s most distinctive homes.
Fall in love with this pristine, park-like retreat set on nearly three tree-lined acres in desirable unincorporated north Crystal Lake. A totally unique, custom home offers something for everyone including the most discerning buyers. Designed with entertaining in mind, yet functional for the business of everyday life, while providing delightful contrast, it perfectly marries formal and informal.
You will appreciate the thoughtful design, great attention to detail, custom millwork and creative floor plan. Offering up to nine bedrooms and 10 baths, this home will meet your needs to host guests, entertain, provide family space or accommodate multigenerational living. The main floor boasts a grand two-story entrance with marble flooring leading you to the heart of the home. The main level offers a family room, living room, formal and informal dining areas and two full kitchens, along with a butler’s pantry and wet bar. A four-season room off the family room provides access to the beautiful deck and outdoor gardens. Additional highlights include an 11-seat home theater, laundry room, walk-in pantry, flex room that could serve as a main-level bedroom and both a full and half bath.
The second level has been creatively designed and features seven of the home’s bedrooms, all including en-suite bathrooms, and the office/loft. You will not want to leave the spacious and luxurious primary suite which offers a sitting room in the turret, a quaint room currently used for crafting, large bedroom area with detailed tray ceiling and attached balcony. The stunning private primary bath has an expansive whirlpool tub and attached walk-in closet boasting wall-to-wall cherry wood organization system and island. The primary area is separated from the rest of the bedrooms by an open walkway enhancing the serenity of the space.
The third level offers a finished and unfinished attic area. Whatever your needs, the large attic offers so many possibilities including a recreation area, kid space, exercise area and gaming room, and the walk-in unfinished attic can be used for storage. Love to use your home for family time or entertaining? Do you need extra space for family activities, hosting parties, holiday gatherings, practice space for the arts or sports? You will be in awe of the space offered for all these things in the walkout basement which, in addition to storage areas, offers a huge recreation room, mirror wall, full bar room, a third kitchen, bedroom and full bath and an almost 1,000 square foot party room.
The party room comfortably accommodates 50 people for dinner and 100 without tables. The room includes a stage area and multiple lighting options including “disco ball” lights. If you don’t host large parties, this room could also be used for so many other purposes. The same level of thought and attention to detail was devoted to creating an exquisite outdoor garden, offering endless opportunities for family enjoyment and entertaining.
With so many access points from inside, you will not run out of ways to combine the indoor and outdoor spaces. Private, tree-lined and spacious, the outdoor private sanctuary offers multiple decks, gazebo, patio off the walkout basement, gorgeous garden features, stone and pavers, statues and extensive lighting setting the stage for the perfect space to enjoy the outdoors. It’s a must see! Original-owner pride of ownership is evident throughout this meticulously maintained home. Every room has been thoughtfully designed and beautifully decorated with timeless, neutral finishes and luxurious details, leaving nothing to do but move in and enjoy.
This home is conveniently located close to town, shopping, dining, Metra, schools, golfing, hospitals, parks, lakes, beaches and all that Crystal Lake has to offer. It’s close to all the necessities, but feels like you’ve escaped it all!
