A Private Riverside Retreat Nestled on nearly a half-acre beneath a canopy of mature trees, this extraordinary ranch residence offers a rare blend of luxury, privacy, and timeless design. Situated on a quiet, picturesque road just moments from the Kankakee River, the setting is one of serenity, beauty, and understated elegance. A sweeping circular drive welcomes guests to a home where impressive architecture and natural surroundings exist in perfect harmony. Dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows, soaring ceilings, and an abundance of natural light create an inviting atmosphere, while breathtaking views of the lush landscape provide a sense of calm from nearly every room. Offering three spacious bedrooms, two-and-a-half baths, and an oversized three-car garage-with the third bay thoughtfully designed for a golf cart, perfect for quick trips to nearby Elks Country Club-this meticulously maintained residence has been curated by its interior designer owner. Every detail has been carefully considered, from the newly renovated kitchen featuring quartz countertops and designer finishes to the custom window treatments, fresh Sherwin-Williams Greek Villa paint, elegant Pottery Barn lighting, custom ceiling fans, and beautifully updated baths, including a Jack-and-Jill bath with a luxurious steam shower. The outdoor living experience is equally impressive. Designed for both grand entertaining and peaceful evenings at home, the resort-inspired grounds feature a stunning inground pool, charming pool house, custom paver patio, gas fire pit, outdoor grilling area, separate storage building, irrigation system, and extensive landscape lighting that transforms the property into a magical retreat after sunset. Perfectly positioned near I-57, the Kankakee River, and Elks Country Club, this exceptional property offers a lifestyle defined by comfort, sophistication, and effortless indoor-outdoor living.
