Hinsdale, IL 60521

Positioned in prime Southeast Hinsdale, this graciously appointed traditional was elegantly updated in 2020. The all-brick residence opens with a dramatic foyer, where a curved "wedding" staircase impresses against a stunning backdrop of soaring windows and an architectural skylight flooding the entire space with natural light. Two sets of French doors lead to the beautiful garden. A wonderful sense of volume and openness is created with multiple skylights, abundant windows and spectacular double height ceilings. A sense of formality and classical forms are balanced with a floorplan that flows effortlessly from space to space. The floorplan is also flexible for families' needs, giving them room to adapt as lifestyles shift. On one side, a formal living room with a fireplace offers a welcoming space from which to receive guests. On the other side, a formal dining room is large enough to host grand parties and holiday gatherings. A gorgeous wood-paneled study with a fireplace offers a respite for quieter moments. A large main floor bedroom suite is handicap accessible, while offering a fireplace and relaxing bath with a large walk-in shower and freestanding tub. The family room is another standout - open, brightly lit and luxuriously spacious with a centerpiece fireplace, wet bar, beverage center and convenient access to the courtyard. Off the family room, the all-white kitchen is a classic with luxury appliances, granite countertops, large island and adjacent breakfast nook. A fully finished basement level with multiple entertainment spaces, wet bar and beverage center, plus second office with built-ins provides the future owner with endless options. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, including another primary bedroom suite. Set behind double doors, this expansive bedroom suite has a large bath with a separate shower and soaking bath. Beyond the residence, there is a charming bluestone courtyard with a fountain for outdoor entertaining. Other thoughtful touches include a first floor laundry, an elevator, heated drive, an oversized 3-car garage and a 2019 heavy shake cedar roof. A prized in-town location near the train and Hinsdale's acclaimed schools completes the portrait of sophisticated living.
