Description
Tucked among the lush mature landscape within the sought-after neighborhood of River Forest, this custom-built French Country gem has been thoughtfully designed to create a one-of-a-kind oasis. Some of the highlights include a rough-hewn plank front door, reclaimed hardwood flooring, rich moldings and leaded glass windows with French doors opening to the sparkling caged pool, garden and forested backyard. The eat-in kitchen is a chef’s dream and is adorned in custom cabinetry, intricate moldings, stainless steel appliances, a large quartz island, an abundance of pull-out cupboards and a dining area. Entertaining is a breeze in the large living room and adjacent sitting area/bonus room that boasts a two-story ceiling and cozy gas fireplace. The owner’s suite is an oasis with its adjacent study and huge spa-like bath. There is an additional en-suite bedroom on the first floor. Upstairs there are two additional bedrooms, a bath and a loft area. There is an oversized two-car garage and air-conditioned hobby/game room off of the garage for additional entertaining space. Multiple screened outdoor spaces, an inviting pool and spa and a large backyard with a garden complete this amazing home. The community of River Forest includes just 24 homes and includes a private park with walking paths, a fishing dock and a kayak launch along the Braden River. All this is in a great location close to Nathan Benderson Park, The Mall at University Town Center and easy access to I-75.
