210 79Th Street, Willowbrook, IL, United States being shown by john greene Realtor with MLS # 11997046

This 2 acre estate is in the shadow of the city. Only 5 minutes to I-55 exit and 20 minutes to downtown, this Willowbrook mansion offers the perks of the suburbs with convenient access to Chicago! Hidden from the road, the grounds of this private, grand estate begin to impress from the moment you enter the property. The long drive meanders past mature trees and the beautifully manicured yard in route to the sprawling 8,328 square foot mansion. The palatial grounds at the rear of the home include large unencumbered green space, mature trees, garden beds, and a landscaped pond with waterfalls and bridge. All of which are visible from every key location on the backside of the home: the four season room, family room, breakfast room, the primary bedroom and its adjoining balcony, the primary bathroom, bonus room, and third floor office! The grand design of the home offers both expansive room sizes while maintaining a comfortable feel. Tall ceilings abound over all four levels! The main floor is a socialite's delight from the grand two story entrance and marble floors to expansive living and entertaining spaces. Effortlessly entertain large groups while traveling between the massive kitchen area, family room, and sunroom. A formal living room and dining room as well as a bedroom, full bath, and laundry round out the main level. The primary suite is a retreat unto its own. Space abounds in the bedroom, bath, and walk in closet. Best of all is the balcony access that overlooks the gardens. An additional three bedrooms of generous size and adjoining bathrooms are on the second level. Large bonus rooms are available on both the second and third level as well as walk-in attic storage. The deep-pour basement includes radiant heated floors, stone fireplace, rough-in plumbing, and design work that has already begun with many of the spaces framed out. For the car enthusiast, the attached four car garage has radiant heated flooring. For additional toy storage, the detached six car garage with lift should work out just fine. When location matters, one will love the proximity to I-55 and Route 83, Hinsdale South High School, and the numerous parks, retail, and dining options. Never before available, now is the time to capture this magnificent home nestled on its 2+ acre parklike oasis!
