Prepared to be "wowed" at every turn of this beautiful and welcoming home in the coveted Orchard Brook subdivision. Nestled into a hillside at the southern tip of the subdivision, this unique home offers over 4,000 SF of finished living space. Huge open common spaces bordering the property are maintained by the homeowners association and create a private and secluded resort-like setting perfect for relaxing, entertaining, and playing without the cost generally associated with a large lot. The homeowners association annual assessment includes access to a pool and clubhouse in addition to common space maintenance. Inside this 5 bedroom, 3 bath, fully updated home there are tons of surprises around every corner. On entering off the cozy front patio, a large, atrium-like sun-drenched foyer welcomes you home. Take a few stairs down to be wowed by the stunning two-sided stone family room fireplace that opens to the large sun room with walkout access to a park-like yard complete with a pondless waterfall. Or, head down the hall to find two bedrooms (or offices), a full bath with steam shower and built-in sauna, utility room, and laundry room. The stately open stairwell up to the main level leads to the loft, three bedrooms including a gorgeous primary suite, and a huge, sunny open living space that includes an updated white kitchen, living room with another fireplace, and dining room with sliding doors to the sprawling Trex deck with hot tub. Extra deep, heated garage could easily hold 3 cars (tandem) with plenty of room for storage on the epoxy floor or in one of two attic spaces with pull down stairs. A flexible floor plan has so many possibilities and would be great for an in-law scenario or grown children. All of this and so much more in an ideal Downers Grove location convenient to all major highways, shopping, and great schools!
