This contemporary home is a rare find, offering architectural distinction and intentional design rooted in energy efficiency all set on a serene 1.24-acre lot. At the heart of the home is a soaring living room with vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows, creating a striking yet welcoming space. The custom galley kitchen is equipped with Ernesto Meda cabinetry, quartz countertops, a Viking range, and a Fisher & Paykel refrigerator-designed for both function and elegance. Just beyond, a sunroom opens onto a two-tier composite deck, offering a seamless transition to the surrounding landscape. A main-floor office with custom built-ins and a tailored workspace offers the perfect work-from-home setup, complete with access to high-speed fiber-optic internet (MetroNet). The first-floor primary suite serves as a quiet retreat with dramatic windows, a spa-like en suite bath featuring a soaking tub, separate shower, and skylights that fill the space with light. Two additional bedrooms are set just a few steps down from the main level, providing privacy and comfort for guests or family. A full hall bath and a generous laundry/mudroom round out the main floor's thoughtful layout. Outdoors, the setting elevates this property beyond the ordinary. A naturalized woodland garden on the north side offers protection from northwesterly winds, while an open lawn and colorful perennial beds extend to the south. The southern third of the lot features a developing prairie garden and a dedicated garden work area. A peaceful water feature, new composite deck, and winding paths invite exploration and reflection in every season. An oversized shed with front and rear garage doors adds versatility for use as a workshop, studio, or extra storage. Notable updates include a ROOF 2017, All SOUTH FACING WINDOWS AND SLIDING DOOR 2021 (Pella double pane) and HVAC systems 2022. Located just 1.5 miles from the La Fox Metra station and minutes from downtown Elburn and the Fox Valley corridor, this home offers a rare combination of privacy, connectivity, and enduring design for the buyer who values thoughtful living inside and out.
