Perched atop a hill you'll find a one of a kind gem tucked away in East Dundee showcasing treehouse views. This home's location is walking distance from East Dundee's historic downtown area loaded with parks, restaurants, nightlife and small shops. This home provides the setting for a serene, quiet, private and relaxing lifestyle with its unique wooded-lot setting. Provided with this property is a second attached lot which can be used to build an addition, a play ground, a pool or for another creative use by its new homeowner's. As you enter through the front door situated at the end of the front garden you will fall in love with the open-concept home's stunning living room tucked between dual staircases that lead to two separate upper levels, and the vaulted ceiling adorned with three windows. The living room is centered around a custom double sided fireplace and a gallery wall for photos or art. Once you walk through the large archway leading to the rest of the main level, you will find yourself in the formal dining room set next to the second side of the fireplace, followed by a cozy sunroom with panoramic floor to ceiling windows that overlook the rear wooded area at the base of the hill that this home is nestled into. Through the windows on either side of the sunroom you'll see two balconies, one of which has a staircase leading to the backyard and the other attached to the master suite. The sunroom ceiling has two skylights that display the lot's towering trees, playing into the treehouse-feel of this home on a hill. Attached to the dining room is the open-concept kitchen with windows overlooking the back yard, plenty of cabinet space, plenty of cabinet space, a skylight, breakfast bar and access to the back deck - perfect for dining al fresco. The rear-facing deck has stairs leading to the rest of the beautifully landscaped backyard area. Just steps from the kitchen you'll find the main level laundry with access to the 2-car garage, offering another main entry point into the home. The uniqueness of the lot's layout makes this one of the town's true hidden gems. This showstopper provides a first floor master suite that has two outdoor seating areas: a rear walkout deck with sweeping views of the forest, and a private outdoor seating area tucked behind greenery and near the home's water fountain that sits in the front garden and emanates relaxation. Moving to the second level using the east staircase, you will find two large bedrooms and a full bath. The bedrooms also boast views atop the hill overlooking the serene wooded rear of the home. The west staircase provides private access to a unique 2nd floor office space. The office spans the full width of the home bestowing multiple areas of sunlight with yet another skylight and ample space for multiple work stations. As the office is tucked from the main living space, it makes for a perfect work from home arrangement. Entering the lower level of the home you will notice two more full-sized bedrooms, a full bath, built-in cabinets and two rear entry points. One of these entry points walks out to the expansive back patio space which is uniquely set to host your gatherings or just spend quiet time with family among the luscious landscape. The second lower level entry point provides access into this home's screened in porch providing another wonderful space to entertain or just spend some time outside. Hurry to schedule your appointment as this home will not last long.
