Property Description

Custom built by Creber Construction in 2003 and set on a rare 80' wide lot in the coveted Field Park neighborhood, this distinguished residence showcases exceptional craftsmanship, generous millwork, and refined architectural detail throughout. Leaded glass mahogany wood double entry doors open to a dramatic two-story foyer anchored by a sweeping double staircase. Designed for both elegant entertaining and everyday living, the home features 10' ceilings on the main level, two fireplaces, a formal Dining Room with butler's pantry, and a beautifully appointed chef's kitchen with custom cabinetry, expansive table space, a substantial island with seating and storage, and newer appliances. The Family Room is richly appointed with walnut built-ins and a striking stone fireplace. A private main-level study with cherry wood built-ins, leaded glass window and separate patio access offers flexibility, complemented by a rare dedicated family office with maple custom cabinetry. Main level mudroom welcomes family and pets from the backdoor entrance and features a designated half bath, maple custom cabinets and lockers, storage bench, a walk-in coat closet, built-in pet food or trash compartment and pantry closet. Upstairs, 9' ceilings and new carpeting enhance the second level. The primary suite is a luxurious retreat, complete with tray ceiling, expansive organized walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath featuring a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and dual vanity with custom walnut cabinetry and granite counters. Secondary bedrooms enjoy en suite bath access, including a thoughtfully designed Jack-and-Jill arrangement with private vanities. A third-level flex space provides endless possibilities for recreation, media, or creative pursuits. The finished lower level (2016) with 9' ceilings and LVT flooring offers impressive additional living space, including a kitchenette, recreation and game areas, exercise room, bedroom, full bath, storage, and included pool table. Outdoor living is equally inviting with a brick paver patio, sit wall, and gas line for seamless grilling. Ideally located just moments from downtown Western Springs, Metra access, restaurants, shops, and top-rated schools, with convenient access to I-294 and both airports - a timeless and beautifully executed home in one of the western suburbs' most sought-after communities.
