With 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, soaring 11' ceilings, and 14 closets (including 3 walk-ins!), this home has space to dream. Step inside, and be awestruck by the luxurious features: cathedral ceilings in the second-floor bedrooms, oak trim, and solid oak doors. Marvel at the grand spiral staircase that spirals up 4 levels and even accommodates a future elevator!

This home is built for entertaining, with its 600 sq ft wraparound porch, heated 3 1/2 car garage, and a 2,000 sq ft basement complete with workshop and massive storage spaces. You'll stay comfortable year-round with dual fireplaces, a natural gas generator, fire sprinklers, and a whole-home alarm system. The master suite is a personal retreat, featuring a kitchenette, rain shower, whirlpool tub, stone fireplace, and a walk-in shoe closet fit for a true aficionado. With triple-pane windows, two fireplaces, bamboo floors, marble bathrooms, and top-of-the-line finishes everywhere you look, this home is luxury living at its finest. Located in the top-rated LTHS school district, you're minutes away from world-class shopping, dining, and transportation. Whether it's golfing at La Grange Country Club, catching a train into Chicago, or enjoying the vibrant downtowns of La Grange and Hinsdale, convenience and class surround you. And for the shoe collectors and lovers of whimsy-yes, there's even a separate closet for 500 pairs of shoes, and dinosaurs in the backyard! Appraised at $1.8M and now listed over $200K below appraised value, this is a rare opportunity to own a forever home that redefines sophistication.
