About This Home

Nestled in highly desirable unincorporated Downers Grove, this extraordinary custom-built estate offers the perfect blend of luxury, functionality, and remarkably low taxes. From the moment you arrive, the home's stunning curb appeal captivates, highlighted by a custom cedar front porch and set on an expansive, beautifully maintained lot. Boasting over 5,000 square feet of above-grade living space, this residence showcases impeccable craftsmanship and high-end finishes throughout, including rich Brazilian cherry flooring, expansive millwork, and impressive 7-foot solid cherry doors. The grand main level features soaring 24-foot ceilings and an open-concept design ideal for both everyday living and elegant entertaining. Anchoring the space is a breathtaking family room with a custom flagstone fireplace and built-in cabinetry. The chef's kitchen is a true showpiece, outfitted with premium Thermador and KitchenAid appliances, a large 5x8 island, pot filler, bar sink, butler's pantry, and a walk-in pantry-perfectly designed for culinary enthusiasts. Adjacent, a sun-drenched tiled sunroom with a full bath offers seamless access to the outdoor oasis. The main-floor primary suite is a private retreat, complete with its own fireplace, a custom lighted tray ceiling, direct access to the backyard, and a spa-inspired bath featuring a double full-body spray walk-in shower and an expansive walk-in closet. A second main-level bedroom or office with private exterior access and a full bath nearby provides exceptional flexibility for related living or a home business. Upstairs, 12-foot ceilings enhance the sense of space, with a large loft, generously sized bedrooms, and a luxurious en-suite that serves as a second primary suite. Additional features include a second-floor laundry room, dual staircases, and attic access with significant potential for future expansion. The finished basement continues to impress with radiant heated floors, a spacious open layout, wet bar, theater area with built-in surround sound, partially finished wine room, full bath with steam shower, and abundant storage including two crawlspaces. A fourth fireplace adds warmth and charm, while an exterior staircase provides direct access to the 3-car garage. Step outside to your private backyard retreat, complete with a fiberglass in-ground sport pool with automatic cover, a 12-zone sprinkler system, and a newer cedar fence. The property also includes additional land beyond the fenced area, enhancing both space and privacy. Additional highlights include dual-zone HVAC with electronic filtration and humidifiers, 400-amp electrical service, two 75-gallon water heaters, central vacuum, and three sump pumps for peace of mind.
