Step outside to a truly special outdoor retreat, professionally landscaped grounds, lush gardens throughout the entire property, a 20x12 covered back porch with a beverage fridge, jacuzzi spa, natural gas grill, and expansive yard space perfect for entertaining or relaxing. The property is just steps to the North Branch Trail leading to the Chicago Botanic Gardens, a rare lifestyle amenity.
