A custom built 3+1 bedroom, 3 bathroom home with midcentury modern influences offers distinctive architecture and generous living spaces. A dramatic roofline and expansive windows set the tone for a bright main level with hardwood floors throughout the living areas. The spacious living room features a vaulted ceiling and fireplace, while the dining room and family room provide inviting spaces for gathering. Maple cabinetry, quartz countertops, and stainless steel kitchen appliances complement the kitchen. A first floor bedroom and full bathroom provide a versatile option for hosting guests or accommodating multigenerational living. Upstairs, 2 bedrooms and a full bathroom complete the upper level. The finished full basement adds a recreation room, fourth bedroom, full bathroom, office, and laundry room. Outside, a tranquil, maintenance-free creek and established perennial gardens with staggered seasonal blooms provide a beautiful backdrop. Two decks, including one with a pergola, offer inviting spaces for grilling, relaxing, and entertaining. Nearby Leiseberg Park offers outdoor recreation, while downtown Bartlett's shops, restaurants, and Metra station add to the appeal and convenience of the location.
