24 Longmeadow Rd

Nestled on a private cul-de-sac and surrounded by nearly an acre of manicured grounds, this timeless custom-built Hemphill home is an updated classic, inside and out. As you come up the private driveway, you will see that the home is set among mature trees and decorative plantings. The front of the property is especially lovely at night when landscaping and facade are custom lit. Walk around back for the spectacular setting: The large bluestone patio fronts a koi pond fed by a boulder scaped waterfall. Lush plantings, including Magnolia trees and Japanese maples, create an enclosed haven for parties, a simple BBQ, or just star gazing. The yard provides plenty of room for games, or perhaps adding that family pool. Inside, the large rooms have been professionally decorated and continually updated. The main floor perfectly flows for entertaining but practical and comfortable for everyday living. Hardwood oak flooring covers several rooms. Many other features include a marble entry, custom gourmet's kitchen with top-line and luxury appliances, utility and prep sinks, grill, and adjacent breakfast room opening onto the patio. Also enjoy wet bars in the family room and library. The light filled living room has a wood burning fireplace with a marble mantle & tumbled marble surround, custom display lighted shelving, and plantation shutters. The dining room has French doors and excellent storage for dinnerware and linens. There is a main floor bedroom with full bath adjoining. An exquisite powder room is convenient to all entertainment areas. The large family room with loads of storage also accesses the patio. The 2nd floor has a unique, recently renovated Primary suite: a private retreat boasting magnificent hardwood built-ins custom designed for both decor and function, a serene view, 2 separate marble and granite bathrooms, 2 walk-in closets and custom lighting. Three additional bedrooms-2 with walk in closets- a hallway bath with double vanity, and a walk-in linen closet complete the 2nd floor. All carpeted bedrooms have oak wood flooring beneath. The house sits midway between the Avoca District's award winning schools and is a short ride to New Trier High. PRIVACY, LUXURY, COMFORT AND CONVENIENCE; THIS HOME HAS IT ALL, INCLUDING A NEW ROOF!
