This distinctive custom-built home in Northwoods Hills delivers rare scale, storage, and mature landscaping on a nearly three-quarter acre lot. Designed with the attention to proportion and connection to the outdoors, the house offers 3,266 square feet of livable space, including generous formal rooms, built-in bookshelves, hardwood floors, and a Pella-windowed dining/Florida room perched amid the treetops.
The main level provides an owner-friendly primary suite with dual walk-in closets, an open formal dining room and living room that flow into the sunroom, and a kitchen equipped with gas range and pantry storage. The lower level expands your possibilities: ample center space that functions as a media or play room, room for additional bedrooms or an auxiliary kitchen, a custom cedar walk-in closet for seasonal storage, and a very clean mechanical area with pegboard-organized storage — perfect for hobbies or gear.
Outside, the yard reads like a private botanical garden with rock features, flowering trees, succulents and year-round plantings that create a peaceful, ever-changing landscape. The original pool house is still plumbed and powered and can serve as a gardener’s workshop, potting shed, or storage annex. Car- and tool-lovers will appreciate the oversized garage (reported at 600+ SF) complete with two separate storage rooms and built-in workbenches — a true tinkerer’s paradise.
Systems have been thoughtfully maintained and updated: new downstairs AC (2025), upstairs HVAC serviced/replaced (2022/2023), new gas water heater (2026), and new luxury vinyl plank flooring downstairs (2026). With a list price of $549,617, this home is a compelling opportunity for buyers who prioritize craftsmanship, outdoor space, and long-term livability. First open house scheduled; interior and lot rewards a careful, in-person inspection.
