Welcome home to this stunning Glen Ellyn property situated on an extra-large .35-acre corner lot in the Glen Oaks subdivision overlooking Glen Oaks golf course greenery. The curb appeal speaks for itself with handsome exterior brick work, corners accented with concrete block quoins & cedar shingled roof. This property is sure to make a great first impression and we haven't even talked about the interior yet. Walking through the front door you are greeted with 18-foot ceilings, chandelier, split entry staircase & gorgeous darkly stained hardwood floors. On the main floor of the home, you will find the formal sitting room to the left of the entry complete with built-in arched recessed bookshelves flanking both sides of a gas fireplace, which is just the first of 5 fireplaces in the home. To the right of the entry is the formal dining room tastefully designed with white decorative wainscoting on the walls, octagon coffered ceiling, built-in butler's pantry and bay windows looking out onto the greenery of the golf course. To the rear of the main level is the heart of this home. The large kitchen is centrally located with quartz countertops and backslash, eat-in Island with cook-top range, stainless steel appliances throughout including dual ovens, dishwasher, large refrigerator, pull-out trash compactor & mounted microwave. If you are looking for storage you will find plenty of it with pull out shelves in the pantry and plentiful cabinetry. A small wet bar complete with its own ice maker and separate drink refrigerator adds to the overall convenience. Just off the kitchen is the breakfast area flooded with natural light from the wrap-around bay window looking out onto the back yard and centrally located half bathrooms with discrete entries. The large 17'x21' main living room area has the 2nd gas fireplace & glass double doors will lead you to the generous sized 3 seasons room. On the opposite side of the kitchen is another room the perfect size for your home office. The main level laundry room with laundry chute and plenty of storage is right next to the door leading to the attached 3 car garage with its own heating element. The smart layout in this home lends itself to entertaining and flows smoothly. The upper level features a total of 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The primary suite is absolutely enormous and includes a sitting area complete with the 3rd gas burning fireplace, large 2 room walk-in closet with built-in organizer, private balcony overlooking the spring flowering trees of the backyard & on-suite bathroom with separate shower, jacuzzi tub, 2 separate sinks and linen closet. A large secondary on-suite bedroom is right down the hall with another good size walk-in closet and built-in organizer. That on-suite bathroom has a stand-up shower and granite countertop vanity. The 3rd & 4th bedrooms are conjoined with a jack & Jill bathroom. Now let's talk about the finished basement, which is also enormous, 1,412 square foot of additional living space. The main room is 54'x22' featuring a full wet bar centrally located, complete with full size refrigerator, wine fridge, soapstone countertops and raised bar top. To the right of the bar is the den with a flagstone floor to ceiling wall with wood burning gas fireplace. On the opposite side is a game area, perfectly sized for billiards, table tennis or air hockey table. A 5th bedroom and 4th full bath makes for a great guest area with a bit more privacy. The basement also has a separate utility/storage area with the HVAC units, 2 water heaters, and a small wine cellar. The home is dual zoned HVAC, controlling the basement separately from the main & 2nd floor. A secondary access door to the basement leads to the attached garage. Last, but definitely not least, is the outdoor space this home provides. The sprawling backyard wraps around the rear exterior of the home. Professional landscaping showcases the central patio area and wood burning fireplace.
