This stately La Grange home is a picture of timeless Colonial architecture and a park-like setting. Behind its classic brick facade is a thoughtfully designed and updated interior, surrounded by mature landscaping and enchanting gardens reminiscent of The Secret Garden. Completely renovated in 2022, the home occupies an expansive 100x135 ft double lot directly across from La Grange Country Club and six blocks from the BNSF Metra line. A remarkable combination of character, privacy, space, and convenience seldom found in today's market.
