This architect-owned mid-century modern ranch is a beautifully preserved example of the era, thoughtfully curated to celebrate the clean lines, warm materials, and seamless indoor-outdoor living that define mid-century design. Nestled on a deep, private lot, the fully fenced backyard feels like a secluded retreat, featuring an expansive deck with multiple lounge areas, an in-ground pool, and mature privacy hedges that create a true resort-like setting. Inside, authentic mid-century modern character shines throughout with original knotty pine ceilings, rich wood paneling, textured wall coverings, expansive picture windows and iconic period light fixtures. Every update has been carefully chosen to complement the home's architectural integrity while enhancing everyday comfort. The welcoming foyer opens to a bright, open-concept living and dining space filled with natural light and sweeping views of the backyard oasis. The classic eat-in kitchen stays true to its roots with maple cabinetry and copper hardware, beautifully paired with updated stone countertops, mosaic tile backsplash and generous dining space. The main level offers three spacious bedrooms, two full bathrooms and convenient first-floor laundry. Downstairs, the finished lower level expands the living space with a built-in office featuring a two-person desk, a storage/utility room, a large family room with wet bar/kitchenette, and a versatile bonus room perfect for a creative studio, private office or flex space. An attached one-car garage includes a built-in workbench, while an oversized concrete parking pad provides space for two additional vehicles. Located within highly regarded school districts including Forest Road Elementary, Park Junior High and Lyons Township High School. Just steps away you'll find the library and Memorial Park offering a playground, splash pad, sports courts and an amphitheater. Easy access to the scenic Salt Creek bike and walking path, downtown La Grange, shopping, parks, the commuter train to the city and both airports.
