380 W Center Rd., Palatine, IL 60074

Rarely does a home offer this combination of character, setting, and space. Set back at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, this distinctive and truly one-of-a-kind property backs to Deer Grove Forest Preserve, providing a private, wooded backdrop and incredible natural views from nearly every room. The heart of the home is the stunning great room, where a dramatic round stone fireplace anchors the space beneath soaring beamed ceilings. Surrounded by windows on all sides, this living and dining area brings the beauty of the outdoors in, it's a space that truly has to be seen to be appreciated. The kitchen, family room, and all three bedrooms also enjoy magnificent wooded views. The primary has an attached updated bathroom, as well as a walk-in closet. A second bedroom is currently used as an office, with the best mid-century modern, cone fireplace. Additional features are an unfinished basement with abundant storage and a 3-car attached garage. If you've been searching for something truly different, a home with soul, setting, and one-of-a-kind architectural details, this is it. Sold as-is.
