About This Home

Nestled in the highly sought-after heart of Des Plaines, this pristine, custom-built 2005 Victorian two-story home masterfully blends timeless elegance with modern comfort and high-end finishes. From the moment you step into the grand, elegant foyer, you are greeted by new hardwood floors and brilliant recessed lighting that flow seamlessly through a sun-drenched living room, a convenient mudroom, and a separate, formal dining room perfect for hosting. The chef's dream kitchen is an entertainer's paradise, boasting a massive central island, rich maple cabinetry, premium granite countertops, a custom tile backsplash, and high-end stainless steel appliances, all seamlessly opening to an expansive family room anchored by a cozy fireplace and offering direct walkout access to the deck. Up the stairs, the upper level serves as a private sanctuary with four generously sized bedrooms, highlighted by a luxurious primary ensuite complete with a massive walk-in closet, dual faucets, a separate shower, and a relaxing jacuzzi tub. The entertainment options double in the fully finished lower-level basement, which offers a massive open layout, a full bathroom, and a custom wet bar designed for leisure and hosting. Complete peace of mind is yours with extensive recent upgrades, including a newer roof (2013), beautiful hardwood floors (2021), a new water heater (2022), upstairs AC and furnace (2026), basement furnace (2025), and premium newer Pella windows throughout. Step outside into your own private oasis-a professionally maintained, lush backyard featuring a spacious deck and a vibrant, beautifully manicured garden blooming with custom plantings perfect for any gardening enthusiast. Boasting a main-floor laundry room and an unbeatable, central location just minutes from top-rated schools, premium shopping, major expressways, and O'Hare Airport, this turn-key masterpiece truly has it all and won't last long!
