This home is truly a masterpiece of luxury and craftsmanship. Set on one of the larger homesites in the neighborhood, its impressive stone and brick exterior immediately sets it apart. Just a stone's throw from the original Berteau Development, this Nitti-built residence is designed to make a statement while blending seamlessly into its surroundings. As you approach, the arched covered front porch, complete with detailed paving, invites you to explore further. The transition from outside to inside is flawless, beginning with the grand two-story foyer. The stunning chandelier captures attention, while the intricate ceiling details, recessed lighting, and wainscoting enhance the sense of elegance. The main home office, located just beyond the entry, is a testament to the home's attention to detail. Coffered ceilings, leaded glass, and custom wainscoting and trim create a workspace that is both functional and beautiful. Nearby, a well-designed half bath and a spacious mudroom provide practical amenities, including custom cabinets, a built-in bench with storage, a fully outfitted closet, and the first of two washer and dryer sets. This mudroom also provides access to the heated three-car garage, complete with epoxy flooring. The heart of the home is the open-concept kitchen and family room. The kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring 42-inch custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, a stately island, and a walk-in pantry. The adjacent dining area, which overlooks the extra-deep yard, provides the perfect space for both intimate meals and large gatherings. Glass doors open to covered back stairs leading to the patio, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. The family room, just off the kitchen, is generously sized and features surround sound, coffered ceilings, custom built-ins, and a focal gas fireplace. Ascending the staircase, accented by wrought iron balusters, leads to four bedrooms and a second laundry room. The primary suite is a private retreat at the end of the hall, boasting a vaulted ceiling, arched window, custom-built closet room, and a spa-like bath with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate full shower. The second full suite, rich in detail, and the third and fourth bedrooms, which share a Jack-and-Jill bath, are located across the hall. Additional features of this exceptional home include custom window treatments, some of which are remotely operated, a LifeBreath heat recovery ventilation system, and a large, pre-plumbed basement with endless possibilities. Located just blocks from downtown Elmhurst, this home offers easy access to shopping, restaurants, parks, pools, expressways, and more, making it the perfect blend of luxury, convenience, and quality living.
