Property Description

Nature Enthusiast? We Have Found Your Dream... Rarely does a property offer this kind of connection to nature. Set on a beautiful 1 acre lot bordering the Palos Forest Preserves, this home faces approximately 15,000 acres of the largest contiguous conservation area in Cook County, practically in your front yard. Imagine morning walks among your own sanctuary of blooms, towering trees and wildlife, then stepping directly from your property onto miles of bike trails. This 2-story home offers 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms and 2,583 sq. ft. with well and septic in an unincorporated setting. The property itself celebrates the natural surroundings with White Oak, Burr Oak and Pear Trees. The patio has footings in place to support a future outdoor kitchen, creating an incredible opportunity to design a gathering space surrounded by nature. Inside, refinished hardwood flooring, custom cabinetry, and stone countertops continue the home's natural character. The family room is anchored by a dramatic floor to ceiling stone fireplace. There are 2 additional fireplaces, including one in the living room and another in the primary bedroom. Ensuite includes dual sinks and a steam shower. For hikers, bikers and outdoor enthusiasts, this location is truly extraordinary. Trails are accessible and connect to the Palos Trail System, offering 27 to 40 plus miles of single track and multi use trails maintained in partnership with CAMBr (Chicago Area Mountain Bikers). Nearby Cap Sauers Holding Nature Preserve encompasses 1,520 acres and is the largest nature preserve in northeastern Illinois. The Palos area is also known for its bald eagles and ospreys. Cook County's first successful publicly viewable bald eagle nest in more than 100 years appeared in 2012 at Tampier Slough in a cottonwood. This is more than a home on nearly an acre. It is an opportunity to live where the forest, trails, wildlife and changing seasons become part of everyday life, while enjoying a property lovingly connected to its surroundings for decades. All this, and within the sought after 118 School District! A rural setting offering privacy and a sanctuary retreat, yet close to it all.
