Property Description
**THE BEST LOCATION** between Northfield's two elementary schools on a private lane with a HUGE backyard, this 1.5-acre property gives you room to really spread out. Lined with trees around the perimeter of the lot for ultimate privacy, the front yard has an ample set back from Old Willow, and the backyard is so big it's like having your own private park! This spacious 4-bed, 3.1-bath home with several work-from-home office options provides a flexible layout. Originally built in 1938, a massive addition was added in 2006 that almost doubled the size of the home to more than 3600 square feet above grade. A large 1st floor bedroom with gigantic walk-in closet and ensuite bath could be a primary suite, a guest/au pair suite, or awesome first floor playroom. Adjacent is a bright, sun-filled office, oversized 1st floor laundry room, and sitting room. A living room with fireplace, formal dining room, half bath, and updated eat-in kitchen overlooking the front and back yards complete the first floor. The second floor has 3 bedrooms, 1 with ensuite bath, and 2 which share a jack-and-jill bath. A bonus room over the attached garage is accessible from the main house or a separate entrance could be used as a 2nd office, studio, workshop, au pair's bedroom, you name it! The unfinished basement provides loads of storage. Unbeatable location only a stone's throw from its award-winning schools, and close to parks, downtown Northfield, and a short drive to the highway and 2 Metra train lines makes commuting anywhere a breeze. Come find out why everyone says Northfield is a hidden gem!
