This four-bedroom, 2½-bath home is a preserved 1933 French Normandy estate along the West Branch of the DuPage River. The home was built using yellow limestone and lumber salvaged from a historic barn. Beyond the main residence, the property includes a detached coach house/studio with full bath and loft, along with garage space for multiple vehicles and a second-floor workshop and storage area. Behind its gated entrance, there are trees more than 100 years old and gardens originally designed by landscape architect Anthony Tyznik of The Morton Arboretum. Out front are a brick-paver drive and courtyard, while the wooded grounds extend toward the river. Other design notes include steeply pitched rooflines, leaded-glass doors and windows, beautiful millwork, exposed beams, handmade Mexican tile floors, a dramatic curved staircase and multiple fireplaces. The kitchen features a granite-topped peninsula, custom cabinetry, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and opens to a fireside sitting area. A cherry library with custom built-ins, a family room with a stone fireplace, and a screened stone porch also are on the main floor. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a private bath and custom built-ins, while two additional bedrooms share another full bath. One level above, the finished attic provides a fourth bedroom and additional flexible living space. The finished basement has a family room, a stone fireplace, a bar, a wine cellar, a walk-in vault and additional entertaining space.
