Description
Exceptional in-town living awaits at 205 W Cook Ave, a beautifully reimagined farmhouse just one block from the heart of downtown Libertyville. Town activities such as the farmers market and Libertyville days are a block away; as are restaurants and the Metra train. Completely renovated in 2018 while thoughtfully preserving many of the home's original architectural details, this remarkable 5-bedroom, 4.1-bath residence seamlessly blends original character with finishes expected in today's luxury homes. Classic farmhouse architecture and an expansive front porch create an unforgettable first impression. Inside, abundant natural light, hardwood floors and beautifully proportioned spaces set an elegant yet welcoming tone. The welcoming dining room leads to the stunning kitchen showcasing an oversized island, numerous custom cabinet features, dedicated coffee station and pantry with restored doors and latch. The inviting family room is anchored by a fireplace and provides access to the back deck and yard. A main floor bedroom and full bath provide flexibility for guests or office needs. Front and rear staircases add to the home's distinctive character and functionality. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a professionally built walk-in closet and luxurious spa-inspired bath. Two additional bedrooms, one with a separate seating room, and the conveniently located second-floor laundry make daily living a breeze. The finished third level provides wonderful flexibility with an additional bedroom, full bath and bonus room. The lower level is anything but ordinary. A one-of-a-kind speakeasy style bar, dedicated home theater, workroom, and additional storage rooms complete this level. Outside, a brick patio overlooks the fenced backyard with raised garden bed, offering a private setting. A truly extraordinary home in a prime location.
