Wow. There are homes, and then there are truly unique properties. This is one of them. A rare ranch sitting on nearly half an acre in a prime grade school area-that alone sets it apart. But wait until you see why this house is so unique. This isn't just a house. This is a masterpiece. Walk in and you're immediately struck by soaring cathedral ceilings in every single room of the main floor, paired with those stunning nine-foot doors that frame every space. Skylights flood virtually every room with natural light, creating an airy, open feeling that just makes you breathe easier. The master suite features a spa-like luxury shower and a modern bathtub that's an experience in itself, and there are three full bathrooms throughout the home. Three spacious bedrooms on the main floor plus a fourth in the finished basement give you flexibility-and that's before you consider the converted the 400 SqFt garage in a gorgeous family room, which can easily serve an office area, a library or whatever your family needs. A separate heat pump system with heating and cooling keeps that space perfectly comfortable. Descend into the finished basement via elegant open metal railing stairs to discover an entertainer's dream-a full bar area and a dedicated entertaining room that practically glows with the same abundant natural light you find upstairs. But the real story is what surrounds and supports this home. Sitting on nearly half an acre with mature landscaping providing privacy, this property offers genuine seclusion and room to breathe. A two hundred plus foot concrete driveway (fits@ 12 cars) leads to a brand new two and a half car garage (2022), complemented by sturdy driveway gates. A new double door shed with double doors and concrete foundation (2019), level two EV charger, two hundred amp service, copper plumbing throughout, sump pump backup, Water heater 2019, Furnace 2017, Windows 2017, Perma Sealed basement with warranty, all hardwood floors .The roof was replaced in 2020. Every major work-including the professional steel beam installation required to convert the garage into the family room-was executed with proper plans and permits, meeting all city standards. And the location? Walking distance to top-rated schools, minutes to the train station, and just a couple of minutes to downtown Des Plaines. This is one of the nicest areas you can find. Looking for something special? This is the one! This is the rare ranch that delivers on every front. Not enough space here to add everything is done in this house! You have to see it.
