Tucked behind gates on a beautifully landscaped and meticulously maintained lot, this exceptional 4-bedroom, 5.1-bath home offers the perfect blend of elegance, comfort, and seclusion. Soaring 9-foot ceilings and a vaulted great room with skylights frame panoramic views of the protected forest preserve, creating a tranquil backdrop for everyday living and upscale entertaining. At the heart of the home, the chef's kitchen features premium appliances-including a Viking double oven-and a spacious eating area perfect for casual dining. Adjacent, the vaulted great room is bathed in natural light and offers sweeping views through expansive windows. A stunning Swarovski Crystal chandelier sets the tone for formal gatherings in the elegant dining room. Step outside to the Trex deck and enjoy resort-style relaxation overlooking untouched nature. The main-level primary suite is a true sanctuary, offering heated floors in the spa-like bath and serene forest views. Also on the main level are a dedicated home office, stylish ceramic tile flooring, and an oversized 3-car garage with an extra-tall bay-ideal for SUVs, boats, or additional storage. The walkout lower level is designed for multi-generational living and entertaining, complete with a large bedroom and full bath, a private in-law suite with its own bath, a hot tub, and a secluded patio that opens to the expansive backyard. A second office and exercise room give even more versatility. Upstairs, a spacious additional bedroom and an enormous bonus room with extensive storage provide endless possibilities-perfect for a gym, media room, or creative studio. With ample guest parking-thanks to the charming barn- formerly part of the esteemed Studio of Long Grove Gallery & Academy of Fine Arts- this home offers a rare combination of luxury, privacy, and artistic heritage. Just minutes from downtown Wauconda and scenic Bangs Lake, this one-of-a-kind property is perfect for those seeking space, serenity, and timeless sophistication.
