Welcome to 203 W Franklin Ave, a bespoke custom home located just 3 short blocks to all of downtown Naperville's dining, shopping and social activities. This beautiful shingle style home was featured in Naperville Magazine for its timeless modern vintage design filled with artisan details and authentic natural materials throughout. This home will stand out from the rest for the attention to detail and the quality of materials used. As you approach the home, you will be captivated by the covered bluestone front porch complete with a large 12'x12' seating area that is sure to be a favorite gathering spot for family and friends, no matter the weather. Step inside, and discover a warm and welcoming floor plan with flexible entertaining spaces that work for the way you live. Quartersawn and rift white oak floors flow through the home, beginning with the wide center hall that leads you into a modern-organic style kitchen with custom walnut cabinets, honed and leathered marble counters, Scandinavian pendant lighting, a large center island, a hidden coffee station, and professional series appliances. The large walk in pantry keeps everyday items accessible, but out of view. The kitchen seamlessly connects to the comfortably sized family room featuring built-in shelving, and a gas fireplace, perfect for relaxing and entertaining. An adjacent sun-filled dining room with Johnathan Alder linear chandelier easily holds a table for 10 and overlooks the private rear courtyard and patio. Just off the front entry is a study that works equally as well as a den, home office or homework space. A custom sliding door separates the study from the sunroom with v-groove ceiling and patio doors that open to the front porch bringing the outside in. Completing the main level is a covered rear porch that opens to the mudroom with built-in cubbies and closets, and a private powder room. As you move upstairs you will find two additional levels of living space. The second level offers three bedrooms and two full baths plus a laundry room. The primary suite is graciously sized and features a comfortable window seat with built-in drawers, just the right spot for afternoon reading or resting. The spa-like primary bath is outfitted with Carrera marble tile, a floating walnut vanity with built-in linen cabinet, designer lighting, Kohler fixtures, and a private commode. The walk in closet features drawers, open shelving and ample hanging space. The two guest bedrooms both have walk-in closets and utilize the second full bath with double sinks, custom built vanity and a linen closet. The third level offers a complete suite with loft or second family room, large bedroom (currently used as sellers work from home space) and private en-suite bath. This level is perfectly suited for a nanny or in-law suite if desired. There is also a charming covered balcony that provides yet another outdoor living area. The lower level with lounge, exercise room and full bathroom, adds an additional 1150sf of living space to this already comfortable home. The rear brick courtyard is professionally landscaped with privacy in mind. The oversized detached garage is just two steps to the covered rear porch and was built to accommodate the single post lift to hold a 3rd car with ease. Sonos system, ADT alarm, and ring cameras add to your enjoyment and security. Conveniently located near schools, parks, and major transportation routes, providing easy access to everything Naperville has to offer. Don't miss the opportunity to make this exceptional house your new home.
