612 Kenwood Ave

A rare opportunity for turnkey living in the heart of Libertyville just blocks from Copeland Manor Elementary, Riverside Park, and the Des Plaines River Trail with direct access to Lake Minear just a 2-miles away! Gutted to the studs and expanded in 2023, this three-bedroom, two-bath home was meticulously reimagined by a professional builder for his own family with no expense spared. Contemporary-inspired interiors are centered around an open layout with raised ceilings, custom accent wall moldings, luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, and all-new windows that flood the spaces with abundant natural light. The open layout creates a seamless flow for entertaining from front to back, as you're led from the living room with a built-in dry bar and wine cooler to the dining room and chef's kitchen, with a glass slider for effortless connection to the backyard. A fully remodeled kitchen is anchored by a peninsula bar with seating, quartz countertops, open shelving, a unique basketweave tile backsplash, and KitchenAid appliances. Part of the addition, the primary suite features a full ensuite bath with integrated closet storage and has been outfitted with architectural details such as a tray ceiling, custom wall moldings, and a clerestory window for a balance of light and privacy. Two additional bedrooms offer flexibility: a front room with built-in cabinetry and shelving, and a middle bedroom accented with custom wall moldings. The home includes a mudroom with custom built-ins and direct access to the rear entry, and a laundry area with a stackable W/D. The backyard has been designed for privacy and utility, featuring a new concrete patio and a deep, flat lawn fully enclosed by fencing. A natural gas connection is available for outdoor grilling. The oversized two-car garage is extra deep and tall to accommodate larger vehicles and features suspended-ceiling storage. Behind the scenes, the infrastructure was entirely modernized with high-efficiency HVAC and a humidifier, tankless hot water, a comprehensive security system, and full spray foam insulation for maximum efficiency. The exterior features new Hardie board and painted brick, supported by underground electric service. This house has it all: the peace of mind of like-new construction, high-quality finishes and a highly sought-after location near downtown Libertyville and moments from neighborhood parks and schools.
