This spacious Fairfield model is filled with natural light and backs to the nature, offering the perfect combination of space, comfort, and functionality. Featuring 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and an attached 4-car tandem garage, this move-in ready home welcomes you with a grand foyer, wide hallways, and an open floor plan designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The main level offers a separate living room and an office just off the kitchen with a built-in desk, ideal for working from home, homework space, or everyday organization. A spacious mud room adds convenience and extra storage. The heart of the home is the expansive kitchen, featuring stunning white cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, abundant storage, a large center island with seating, and a separate eating area. The kitchen opens seamlessly to the inviting family room, where a fireplace creates a warm and welcoming focal point. Sliding glass doors lead to the fenced backyard with a patio and a raised fenced-in garden, offering the perfect space for outdoor dining, gardening, and relaxing while enjoying views of the forest preserve. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite provides a true retreat with room for a sitting area, two walk-in closets, and a luxurious ensuite bath with separate vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. Three additional bedrooms and another full bath provide plenty of space for family, guests, or a home office. The second full bathroom was tastefully updated in 2022 with new tile and a new toilet. Additional highlights include a sump pump with battery backup, programmable thermostat, and an attached 4-car garage with exceptional room for vehicles, storage, hobbies, or recreational equipment. Ideally located in Lake Villa with Thompson Elementary School on-site in the neighborhood, this home is ready for its next owners to move in and enjoy.
