Where Nature Meets Modern-Day Convenience! Custom-built ranch, lovingly maintained by its original owner since 1997, offers a rare combination of privacy, comfort, and thoughtful design. Nestled on a beautifully landscaped 3/4-acre lot, it delivers a quiet, nature-filled setting while keeping daily life within easy reach. A spacious covered front porch offers a quiet place to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Inside, the open layout flows effortlessly between the living and dining areas, all beneath a vaulted tongue-and-groove ceiling with skylights and oversized windows that fill the space with natural light. The kitchen features oak cabinetry, granite countertops, ample storage, and opens directly to a large maintenance-free Trex deck-perfect for grilling, entertaining, or simply kicking back and enjoying the backyard. The main level includes three bedrooms and two full baths, including a generous primary suite with an en-suite bath and a jetted soaking tub-perfect for relaxing at the end of the day. The finished basement is thoughtfully laid out for entertaining-spacious yet cozy-with a stone-faced wet bar featuring ambient lighting and a gas stove-style fireplace that adds warmth and charm. Whether you're hosting game night, movie marathons, or casual get-togethers, the open design makes it easy to relax and connect. A versatile bonus room works great as a home office, gym, or creative space, and a third full bath with walk-in shower adds flexibility. A large laundry and storage area completes the lower level. The oversized 24' x 36' heated detached garage provides ample space for vehicles, hobbies, and storage. Large outdoor pet enclosure offers an added convenience for pet lovers. Thoughtfully maintained over the years, the home includes a roof replaced in 2018, HVAC and water heater from 2019, and a whole-house Kinetico water system-providing lasting quality and peace of mind. Tucked into a peaceful neighborhood and just minutes from Downtown Palatine, shopping, dining, award-winning schools, and the Metra train, the location also offers quick access to Rt. 53/I-355. Walk to trails, parks, and the forest preserve-perfect for outdoor lovers. This home offers space, comfort, and a lifestyle you'll love.
