About this home
Spectacular nature and pond views set the stage for this beautiful Oakwood of Grayslake home! Lovingly owned, meticulously maintained, and thoughtfully updated by its original owners. From the moment you arrive, the welcoming front porch invites you into a spacious foyer and elegant living room that flows seamlessly into the dining room-perfectly designed for entertaining and everyday living. The stunning, updated kitchen (2020) is truly the heart of the home, featuring quartz countertops, a large breakfast island accented by two statement chandeliers, custom cabinetry with both under- and over-cabinet lighting, a farmhouse sink, garden window, pantry, stainless steel appliances (2020), and soft-close drawers throughout. The kitchen opens to a sunny breakfast area with newer French doors that lead to a brick paver patio and a serene backyard retreat. Here, premium gardens and professional landscaping frame breathtaking pond and nature views, complete with a charming butterfly sanctuary. The inviting family room offers a cozy fireplace with gas logs and starter, creating the perfect gathering space (large-screen TV may remain). An updated first-floor guest bath (2017) adds convenience and style. Most of the romms enjoy incredible, uninterrupted views of the pond and surrounding nature. Hardwood floors and versatile top-down/bottom-up shades allow you to maximize the scenery while maintaining privacy when desired. A functional first-floor laundry room serves as the entry from the garage and includes a washer and dryer (2021). Upstairs, the home offers a spacious primary suite and three additional generously sized bedrooms. The vaulted primary bedroom is a true retreat, featuring a beautifully updated private bath (2024) with a soaker tub, his-and-hers vanities, and a large separate shower. Additional highlights include whole-house window replacement (2017) with premium Energy Star-rated, insulated double-hung windows for easy cleaning and energy efficiency. The large unfinished basement provides excellent expansion potential, while major mechanical updates include a newer furnace and A/C (2018), roof (2016), and hot water heater (2022). Ideally located close to parks, recreation, trails, popular schools, and abundant shopping for everyday needs, this exceptional home offers a rare blend of comfort, quality, and breathtaking natural surroundings-a truly special place to call home.
