    Rebuilt in 2012 and available for the first time...this exceptional East Highlands residence has nearly 4,000 total square feet! Situated on a desirable corner lot, just east of downtown Naperville, this custom built home combines the character of an established neighborhood with the comfort and quality of newer construction. A welcoming wraparound porch creates the perfect setting for relaxing or entertaining. Inside, wide plank hickory flooring, soaring ceilings, custom millwork and crown molding create a warm yet sophisticated atmosphere on the main and upper levels.
