**Location, Location, Location!** You can't get better than this in District 27. Welcome to this stunning five-bedroom GEM on Ivy Lane in Northbrook, backing directly up to a beautifully maintained 24-acre park. 1739 Ivy is brimming with space and character, offering hardwood flooring throughout and a prime location to customize and and create a unique home on some very well-maintained bones. Upon entering the large foyer, you'll notice the expansive living room with double doors leading into an equally spacious family room containing a charming all-brick wood-burning fireplace. Slide open the patio doors to reveal a sprawling deck where you can sip your morning coffee and take in the beautiful scenery. Natural light floods the home through windows, offering stunning views, especially in the full-sized eating area in the kitchen featuring a gorgeous bay window. A formal dining room and first-floor laundry area off the kitchen complete this inviting main-floor layout. Venture upstairs to discover ALL FIVE bedrooms, including a generously sized primary bedroom with an ensuite full bath. The four additional bedrooms have hardwood flooring, double closets, and access to another full bath. Need even more space? The huge 1,000+ sq. ft. basement provides endless opportunities to make this the home of your dreams. The true enchantment of this property lies in its expansive backyard and unique proximity to open land that will NEVER be developed. Just out your back door, West Park features a paved walking path and seasonal playing fields. A short walk through the park brings you to Northbrook Sports Center, with opportunities for entertainment and exercise for everyone, including tennis and pickleball courts, two playgrounds, public swimming pool, and ice skating rinks. Don't miss the chance to make this incredible home yours!
