Description

Designed by acclaimed North Shore architect Edward Deegan in collaboration with the award-winning team at SZ Interiors, this recently completed custom residence represents a rare alternative to much of today's new construction. Every architectural detail, finish, and material was thoughtfully selected to create a home of lasting quality, timeless design, and everyday livability. Privately set on nearly one acre, the home sits well back from Everett Road behind mature trees and thoughtfully landscaped grounds, creating an uncommon sense of privacy while remaining just minutes from Market Square, schools, Lake Michigan, and approximately a seven-minute walk to the Metra. Inspired by the character of an American cottage and interpreted through a refined contemporary lens, the home features white oak flooring, soaring ceilings, expansive Marvin windows, and exceptional natural light throughout. A dramatic central stair tower serves as the architectural focal point, connecting each level while framing beautiful views of the surrounding canopy of mature oaks. The great room is both elegant and inviting, featuring dramatic vaulted ceilings, a limestone fireplace, designer lighting, and French doors that create a seamless transition to a covered outdoor living space with its own fireplace and a separate patio accented by cafe lights-an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining well into the evening. At the heart of the home, the chef's kitchen was designed for serious cooking and effortless entertaining. Custom cabinetry is paired with a substantial white oak island topped in dramatic Viola marble, professional Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, and a curated collection of Perrin & Rowe fixtures, including a classic bridge faucet, pot filler, and dedicated filtered water faucet. Throughout the remainder of the home, House of Rohl plumbing fixtures continue the home's commitment to timeless design and exceptional craftsmanship. Every cabinet, built-in, and millwork detail was custom designed specifically for this residence, reflecting a level of craftsmanship and finish rarely found in today's new construction. The first-floor primary suite offers the comfort of a private retreat with vaulted ceilings, heated marble floors, Calacatta marble, a Victoria + Albert soaking tub, oversized shower, custom cabinetry, and generous walk-in storage. A richly detailed private office with custom built-ins provides an ideal work-from-home environment overlooking the grounds. Two spacious, light-filled bedrooms and a beautifully appointed bath occupy the second floor, connected to the main living spaces and the lower level by the home's dramatic windowed stair tower. Below, the bright, fully finished lower level offers a true fourth bedroom, a beautifully appointed full bath, and a spacious recreation room. Oversized east- and west-facing windows fill both spaces with natural light throughout the day, creating a lower level that feels more like the main living
