Welcome to 'The House' in Homer Glen, a LUXURIOUS and TIMELESS mansion with a certain old soul / new energy charm to it. Custom designed by Culligan Abraham Architecture - who's been featured in national design outlets including Luxe Interiors + Design - is known for producing CASUALLY ELEGANT homes that are both INVITING and COMFORTABLE. 'The House' is the epitome of this design concept. Securely nestled in a PRIVATE CUL-DE-SAC, perched into a hill on 5 acres with an impressive driveway leading up to a prominent hipped slate roof, hand chiseled LIMESTONE EXTERIOR with copper elements; these EXTRAORDINARY MATERIALS create a distinguished first impression. Being greeted by a giant wooden front door further evokes the quintessence quality of chosen materials and elevated design. Upon entering it is evident the OPEN and PRACTICAL LAYOUT is most mindful of the FUNCTIONALITY for TODAY'S active family LIVING and ENTERTAINING - What initially seems like a big house, essentially feels like a WARM HOME! The entire rear of the home is wrapped with oversized windows and MULTIPLE OUTDOOR TERRACES that offer PANORAMIC VIEWS of the SERENE BACKYARD, POND, and CIRCULAR FIRE PIT PATIO. Enjoy the vibrant visual changes of the seasons, experience the OPENNESS and BALANCE of being surrounded by nature, feel like you are in the middle of it all! Some other highlights living in this home: hand scraped WHITE OAK and limestone FLOORING, walnut in the home office library; GETTING COZY next to 5 stone fireplaces located throughout the home, even a distinctive stone kitchen fireplace reminiscent of an old European kitchen. The heart of this home is the well designed CHEF's KITCHEN with custom cabinetry, a large island and commercial grade appliances and breakfast room; also the family room with the custom arched ceiling and wooden beams leading down a stone step way to BACKYARD TRANQUILITY. The unique PRIMARY SUITE with stone fireplace includes HIS & HERS lavish bathrooms & WIC's and an INTIMATE TERRACE overlooking beautiful backyard; 2nd & 3rd bedrooms have huge WIC's and share a Jack & Jill bathroom; 4th and 5th bedrooms are both en-suites! Space for 6 cars in 3 attached garages. Though no expense was spared on the build of 'The House'; between the RADIANT HEATING in the walkout basement flooring, the smart HVAC ZONING throughout, and the overall solid build of home, the utility bills are VERY LOW! The Village of Homer Glen is located just 25 miles southwest from Chicago and is proud of its AWARD WINNING SCHOOLS and being ranked as the #1 SAFEST PLACE to live in Illinois! Come experience the CHARM and COMFORT with fabulous views of 'The House' in Homer Glen.
