First time on market ever! Special renovated classic set on 1 acre, nestled within the coveted landscape of Indian Hill Road overlooking the 5th fairway. A timeless English Tudor, with a major renovation and addition by the current owners (only the 2nd family to own the home) boasts both extraordinary golf course and garden vistas. A lovely sanctuary in the heart of Winnetka, this 4BD, 4.2BA home offers a seamless blend of classic elegance and casual ease. The traditional center entry floor plan welcomes you through a gracious foyer with stunning views to the garden and beyond. The 1st floor offers both the space and comfort essential for everyday living, while also embodying a sense of relaxed sophistication. Spacious sun-lit living room with original leaded windows and custom carved fireplace with an adjacent library/office, plus a formal dining room are perfect spaces for entertaining. The more recent reimagined chef's kitchen (2006) was moved to the rear and features high-end appliances, custom cabinetry, expansive center island and a sunny breakfast room overlooking the back gardens designed by Craig Berman. Beyond the kitchen, a butler's pantry and oversized family room with exceptional millwork, beams and fireplace provides ideal space for casual gatherings and/or unwinding at the end of the day. An attached, oversized 2 car heated garage and mudroom addition add to today's convenient lifestyle. Up the striking front stairway, the current owner uses the entire east wing as an extensive collection of rooms making up the primary suite (including his and her baths, closets and offices). A more traditional use of the space would be as 4 beds and 4 full baths, including an incredible revised primary suite catering to the most discerning expectations. An extra 2nd floor room can create another bedroom suite or be used as an upstairs den or homework room. Very comfortable finished basement allows for extra game and play space! The brick-herringbone backyard patios, breathtaking gardens and expansive grounds allow for fabulous al fresco dining and plenty of outdoor fun. With an inviting ambiance of warmth and tranquility, set on one of the most coveted private roads, this classically refined home harmoniously balances casual ease with tasteful elegance making it an exceptional place to call home. Opportunity to make it your own and opportunity for 3rd floor expansion in attic. This property is not in the flood plain. Please make appointments in ShowingTime.
