Cary, IL 60013

Spectacular custom Verseman-built, former model home in desirable Harvest Glen with all right upgrades. No expense was spared during construction or on the improvements since! An entertainers dream, both inside and out, with beautiful views all the way out to the Fox River. Pulling into the horseshoe driveway you'll first notice the stone front facade and generous front windows adorned by custom cedar shutters. Through the windows, catch a first glimpse of the colorful blown-glass chandeliers hanging in both the front "piano" and dining rooms. Upon entering you'll be greeted by a marble floor medallion and an elegant staircase and balcony overlooking the foyer and great room-look straight through to the rear of the home all the way to the Fox River! Unseen is a second, rear traverse on the same staircase that leads directly into the kitchen. Standing in the foyer you'll now fully appreciate the 42" custom multi-color blown-glass chandelier with LED lights hanging in the "piano" room and similar 32" blown-glass chandelier over the dining room table. As you venture further, see the 1st floor study which boasts double French doors, 11' coffered ceiling, and a beautiful wall of windows allowing generous amounts of sun. Moving further inside opens up to the 2-story Great Room boasting a stone fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows. Peering out the windows reveals the resort-like backyard pool area, followed by a community pond and the Fox River. The $200,000+ backyard project in 2007 included a 20x40' heated salt-water pool with automatic cover; outdoor fireplace; pergola-covered lounge areas at either end of the pool; an outdoor kitchen with built-in grill and granite counters; landscape lighting and a raised entertainment area. Entertain 100+ guests in seclusion and not feel crowded! Back inside, glance right and begin to appreciate the heart of this home - a massive entertainer's kitchen with cabinets and granite galore with an oversized center island. Marvel at the chandelier hanging over the breakfast table-it spans over 6' long with 36 LED candelabras and over 400 light reflecting crystals making it the star of any event. Host family gatherings in luxury for 20+ guests with ease. This gourmet kitchen also includes copious 42" cabinets, soft close mechanisms, walk-in pantry, custom window treatments and separate wet bar area. Rounding out the 1st floor is the laundry room with custom hall tree, granite countertop prep area and stainless steel sink with professional high-arc faucet; alas, enjoy the Spring and Fall seasons from the 3-season sitting room with 28 Sunspace, floor-to-ceiling windows and doors that let the outside in while keeping the weather out. The updated laundry room and 3-season room were part of an extensive $80,000+ renovation in 2016 that included adding granite and new sinks to the laundry room; adding granite to the vanities and new, clear seamless shower doors to bathrooms of the secondary bedrooms upstairs to bring every bathroom to the same high quality finishes of the master bedroom; and adding over 2,000 ft of hardwood floors replacing all carpeting in the home. The Master suite upstairs includes tray ceilings, walk-in closet with custom shelving and a master bath with full-glass shower with body sprays, separate his/hers vanities and jetted tub. The 2nd bedroom features en suite bathroom. 2 additional well-sized bedrooms share a unique Jack-and-Jill bathroom with completely separate vanity areas. Finished walk-out lower level features wet bar area with refrigerator and ice maker; a living room with gas fireplace and gaming area. Another full bathroom is perfect for pool guests. Large storage area rounds out the lower level with room for an additional bedroom with private entrance to the garage or work-out space overlooking the pool.This home wouldn't be complete without the 4-car garage with radiant heated floors, epoxied floor finish, R18 rated insulated garage doors & interior water spigot.
