About this home
Back on the market due to an unforeseen change in the buyer's situation. This your chance to a rare setting and exceptional lifestyle. Unmatched opportunity. Homes with views like this do not come along often. This is your opportunity to get into one of Thornwood's most coveted streets, backing to a protected nature preserve with breathtaking views that stretch for miles. Homes in this setting rarely become available-and this one delivers space, light, and lifestyle in equal measure.Offering four bedrooms upstairs plus a fifth bedroom or flex space in the finished English basement, 3.1 baths, and a full basement bath, this home provides the space and versatility today's buyers are seeking. Natural light floods every level thanks to soaring vaulted ceilings, a thoughtful open layout, and a stunning wall of windows overlooking the preserve.A spacious eat-in kitchen serves as the central gathering space, featuring white cabinetry, a waterfall granite island, double ovens, and a walk-in pantry. The family room is warm and inviting with a cozy fireplace and uninterrupted views of the open space beyond. A first-floor office, tucked away from the main living areas, includes custom built-ins and wainscoting and offers a quiet work-from-home retreat. Upstairs, the primary suite features vaulted ceilings and a private bath with dual sinks, a whirlpool tub, and a large double shower. The finished basement expands your living space with a recreation room, full bath, fifth bedroom (or flex room), and generous storage. Outside, enjoy indoor-outdoor living with a deck and paver patio overlooking a large backyard that backs directly to nature-no neighbors behind you, just expansive views and tranquility. An integrated indoor/outdoor home speaker system enhances the experience, making this an ideal setting for entertaining or relaxing outdoors. A sprinkler system and 3-car side-load garage complete the home. As an added benefit, per the Kane County Tax Assessor, the 100 percent tax exemption STAYS with the home for the full 2026 year. New owners will have a ZERO tax bill for the time they reside in the home during 2026! A HUGE SAVINGS for the new buyers! All of this is located in the highly sought-after Thornwood community, offering a clubhouse, pool, sport courts, miles of scenic trails, and is within the acclaimed St. Charles School District. Please note the following improvements completed since purchase: 2026: Interior freshly painted, new under-cabinet kitchen lighting, new water heater, garage painted with new epoxy floor 2025: New furnace, fully fenced backyard and refreshed landscaping 2024: Top-of-the-line washer and dryer 2022: Air conditioner replaced.
