*** Multiple Offers Received. Highest & Best due Tue 10/29 by 2:00pm ** ** GENEVA school district 304 ** IF YOU: 1) Have an eye for the uncommon; 2) Possess taste that exceeds the norm; 3) Appreciate superior construction; 4) Value sustainable energy; and 5) Love a little land ... then you will be SMITTEN with this handsome La Fox residence. Just a short drive from downtown Geneva and St. Charles, and you're in another world: open fields, rolling acres, and small-town charm. As you meander up the driveway through the expansive front yard, two things will catch your eye: the home's striking portico and the German, triple-paned Unilux windows. But this is just the beginning. Entering through the spacious foyer, you'll feel the quality of the solid oak, hand-hewn post-and-beam construction. On your MAIN LEVEL, you'll find your newly remodeled cook's kitchen, where the cool tones perfectly complement the warm beamwork. The heart of the home is in the kitchen, literally: a beautiful, wood-burning Tulikivi soapstone stove can heat the home independent of the forced-air system. Off the kitchen is your dining area, which opens to a light-drenched sunroom overlooking the graceful back garden. Also on the main level, you'll enjoy a fire in the coziest of family rooms. Or, head to your more private sitting room with a book or an acoustic guitar. If work calls, a large study with stately built-ins awaits. Finally, a newly remodeled full bath, as well as a laundry/mud room, are both conveniently located on the main floor. Going upstairs to the SECOND LEVEL, you'll find four of the most charming bedrooms you've ever seen. The beamwork, sloped ceilings, and unique window locations give an air of whimsy. Gracing your master bedroom is a newly remodeled bathroom with a new walk-in closet... and oh, the windows and ceilings! You might never leave your bathtub. The other full upstairs bathroom has also been remodeled and is the most delightful of spaces. Lastly, there is a tucked-away balcony, inviting hours of reading, sewing, or playing. Moving on up is a fully livable THIRD LEVEL, perfect for a studio, playroom, or office. Lest we forget, head down to the finished, WALKOUT BASEMENT, which houses your mechanicals, including a geo-thermal system and a new, active radon mitigation system. The cherry on top of this remarkable home is the new architectural roof, and the extra perk is the oversized shed, which could potentially be a second garage. With its superior construction, architectural beauty, and energy efficiency, this is a one-of-a-kind home for an exceptional buyer.
