Extraordinary artisanal woodwork graces this custom property. As in all truly well executed designs, the blend of remarkably artistic detail and spacious, flowing interiors create a welcome sanctuary. ***** Gleaming hardwoods, illuminated tray ceilings and repurposed architectural artifacts lend an eclectic flair, while custom Australian Lacewood inlay, built in bookcases and brawny 8" baseboards add to the sturdy, homey charm. ***** The kitchen is made for serious entertaining with Wolf, Sub-Zero, Fisher & Paykel, granite and distinctive custom-crafted cabinetry. Historic pillars flank the range and reveal a secret stash for storage; they were lovingly saved from demolition when an Elgin rectory was remodeled. Matching pillars anchor the beauty of the fireplace. ***** The fantastic primary suite is a serene retreat. Spanning over 716 square feet, it includes a separate sitting area (wired for surround sound), walk-in closet and fantastic spa bath. ***** The sun-drenched lower level is awash with windows which masterfully frame views of the bubbling water feature in the back garden. ***** An expansive, newly installed brick patio pours from the kitchen glass doors, overlooking the water feature. Texture and color bursts from each garden, showcasing the Master Gardener's expertise. Just under a shady tree is a darling she-shed which echoes the design of the home. It's resplendent with a chandelier and whimsical outdoor gathering spot reminiscent of a relaxing European Bistro. It's no wonder the architecture critic of the Chicago Tribune, Blair Kamin, hired this talented contractor/artist to devise and execute improvements to his personal dwelling! Spend some time here drinking in the features. You will love it.
