This fabulous home is located on a quiet cul-de-sac in the East Ravinia District on nearly 1/2 acre. Over $300,000 in updates were completed by the current owner over the last 2 years. It has been meticulously maintained and beautifully updated both inside and out. Featuring 6 bedrooms, 5 full and one-half baths, high ceilings, gleaming hardwood floors, generous room sizes, custom millwork and abundant natural light throughout, this recently painted stucco home offers both charm and sophistication. The formal living room features an intricately carved limestone wood burning fireplace, and French doors leading to the sun-drenched family room and a molded entry to the study with built-in bookcases. The Family Room offers tranquil views of the shallow Ravine and Koi Pond, a marble surround fireplace and a built-in wet bar. The beautifully updated kitchen boasts ample storage and a large breakfast room. An elegant staircase leads to the 2nd floor with a spacious second floor foyer/loft. The Primary Suite contains two walk-in closets, a dressing area and a luxurious updated bath. Four additional large bedrooms with spacious closets, three full baths (2 just updated), and an office or sitting room with a walkout roof deck, complete the second floor. The full, walkout basement features a bedroom, full bath, recreation room, plenty of storage space and its own kitchen. The beautifully landscaped yard features a stream feeding the koi pond, pergola, tiered bluestone patio, and lovely plantings. This home serves as both a place to entertain small or large groups and an oasis for peaceful relaxation.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
