Large front yard perfect for the efence for exercising the dogs, or hosting kids' friends for pop up volleyball, badminton, or jump house.

The family room location allows kids a place to play and be supervised. Multiple areas to dine and serve food, and the huge living room and fireplace has been a favorite to gather around with friends. The dining room can seat 12 easily. First floor office looking out into nature and away from the house's main traffic areas. Ample closet and storage space-rare for a "vintage" home. Filled with natural light-great for Illinois winters. 5 bedrooms up and large for a vintage home. Side yard location allows for long sun hours-perfect for gardening. So many usable spaces. Checks all the boxes! Unique facade inspired by East Coast Nantucket style. Agent Owned.
