Welcome to 562 South Fairfield Avenue in Elmhurst-an exceptional modern farmhouse built in 2019 and beautifully situated on a rare 75-foot-wide lot. This thoughtfully designed home offers 4 bedrooms plus an additional bedroom in the finished lower level, 4.1 baths, and a 3-car garage, blending timeless style with today's most desired amenities. A welcoming front porch sets the tone as you step through the front door into an open-concept main level featuring 10-foot ceilings, white oak hardwood flooring, and a soft, neutral color palette throughout. The gourmet kitchen is truly the heart of the home, showcasing a large island, professional-grade appliances, quartz countertops, and custom handcrafted floor-to-ceiling cabinetry. A separate breakfast room stuns with a soaring 15-foot shiplap-trimmed ceiling accented by exposed wood beams, flooding the space with natural light. The kitchen opens seamlessly to the family room, where a fireplace, built-in cabinetry, exposed wood ceiling beams, and views of the backyard create an inviting, light-filled gathering space. Entertaining is effortless with a dining room featuring a striking accent wall and tray ceiling with recessed lighting, conveniently connected to the kitchen by a butler's pantry/bar and a door to the walk-in pantry. The living room offers French doors that open to the front porch, while the main level is completed by a private first-floor office, a half bath, and a well-appointed mudroom with built-in bench and lockers, herringbone floors, and access to both the heated garage (with epoxy flooring) and backyard. Upstairs, double doors lead into a luxurious primary suite spanning the entire back of the home. This serene retreat features an expansive walk-in closet with a breakfast bar and a spa-like bath with dual vanities, soaking tub, large shower with seating, and a private commode. Two additional bedrooms share a well-designed Jack-and-Jill bath, each with its own private vanity and commode, while a fourth bedroom is ensuite. All bedrooms include walk-in closets, and a conveniently located second-floor laundry room adds everyday ease. The finished lower level is equally impressive, highlighted by a temperature-controlled glass wine room with capacity for approximately 900 bottles. The expansive recreation area includes a bar and fireplace, along with an additional bedroom, exercise room, full bath, and a large utility room offering storage.
