Follow a series of narrow, winding private roads to a peaceful cul-de-sac where you'll arrive at 15 Willet Way--a beautifully refreshed Trout Valley home offered for the 1st time in 40+ years in. Enjoy 3900 SF of living on 3 levels thoughtfully designed for everyday living and entertaining indoors and out. A brick walkway leads to the covered front porch, one of 3 outdoor areas to sit and enjoy. On the main level you'll find a spacious primary bedroom with full bath, large living room with floor-to-ceiling windows, fireplace and beautifully refinished hardwood floors, and an expansive kitchen with abundant cabinetry, pantry, large, built-in buffet and eating area for 10+ and is flanked by a large bay window overlooking the deck and wooded landscape beyond. French doors lead to the year-round 4-season room with views of the lush and rich green landscape of native trees, fauna and flora. Outside to the left is the newer brick-paved patio and to the right is the large deck overlooking ravines and fire pit. Here you'll enjoy a large space including a new hot tub (2025), seating area, dining area with table for 8. Also on the main level is a large, recently remodeled mudroom with loads of potential including combining the space with the adjacent primary bedroom bathroom to create a spa-like ensuite. On the 2nd level are 3 bedrooms and full bath with tub, shower and double sinks. The lower level underwent an extensive 2024 renovation, featuring new flooring, lighting and a bright, open space for another office. The spacious rec room features rustic, reclaimed wood paneled walls and multiple areas to relax or entertain and a large original floor-to-ceiling window with views of the surrounding woods and ravines. Additional spaces include an office with built-in bookshelves and adjacent family room. French doors lead to the bright and airy artist studio with door to the backyard. You'll also find a 2nd half bath, laundry room and a large flex room ideal for a gym or storage. Trout Valley HOA offers residents a marina and boat launch at the Fox River, tennis and pickleball courts, community pool, horse boarding for residents only at the historic Prentice Smith barn, stocked fishing ponds, basketball courts, seasonal ice rink, community garden plots and social gatherings at the barn for events such as Derby Day and Food Truck night. Across from the barn, is The Hawthorn Shoppe which is just one of several independently owned businesses run by Trout Valley residents. They feature an intentionally curated selection of high-end furniture, lighting, textiles and home accessories from talented artisans and top brands and specialize in interior design. New to Trout Valley is the meticulously and exquisitely renovated Mansion and Le Belle Vie. Originally built by John D. Hertz as a gift for his daughter Leona, The Mansion offers residents small-group gatherings such as Bread Day, Flower Arranging and Tea and tours of the completed renovations and future plans. Thanks to the dedicated HOA, volunteers and Mansion project, Trout Valley is a community poised for a new era of desirability and boost to long-term home values. All of this, just a quick ride or short walk to the Metra, dining on Main street in Cary, and is within easy reach of Crystal Lake, Barrington O'Hare and downtown Chicago.
