Extraordinary country estate nestled in the heart of picturesque Bull Valley, characterized by rolling hills, green pastures, majestic trees, and gorgeous horse farms. As you approach "Maidstone", the home's affectionate name, you're greeted by elegant brick pillars and a wrought iron gate. The driveway leads you uphill to a beautifully restored barn featuring stables on the ground level and a spacious main area which provides an idyllic setting for parties or large family gatherings. Next, you'll find a stunning 20x40 heated inground pool, complete with a screen house and reclaimed Chicago Common Brick decking. Adjacent to the pool is a three-car garage, above which is a spacious generous apartment perfect for guests, an au pair, or a caretaker. The garage connects to the home via a charming white-columned portico. Moving inside, you're greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere with abundant deep-set windows, oversized white woodwork, arched doorways, and hardwood floors. The updated country kitchen boasts an 7-foot island, glass-front cabinets and a large kitchen table. The kitchen opens into both the dining room and the sunroom with a fireplace and numerous windows - a perfect spot for enjoying morning coffee with lovely views in all seasons. This remarkable home offers countless special features, including four fireplaces, walnut-paneled library, master suite with a large walk-in closet and cozy sitting area, and finished English lower level with radiant heated floors and wine cellar. Towering locust trees sway gently in the breeze, framing the lush 3+ acre property. This serene estate is just minutes from historic Woodstock, where you can enjoy fine dining, theater performances, a local farmers market, the Metra train station, and the famous "Groundhog Day" celebration. Lastly, but not leastly, located near the members only bridle trails, maintained by the Bull Valley Riding Club, which also offer a variety of community activities.
