Glen Ellyn, IL 60137

This Lake Ellyn transitional beauty has been totally transformed and the thoughtful design, with an emphasis on maximizing and enhancing living spaces, makes this gem perfect for even the most discerning buyers who are ready for their next chapter in one of the most desirable locations in all the Western Suburbs! Collaborating with Z+O Architects, the main floor living space was completely redesigned. The two-story entry, drenched in natural light, opens to an airy living room with soaring ceilings and oversized windows overlooking the wooded, natural landscape. The attached formal dining room, with a large bay window, leads to a butler pantry with a Danby, dual-zone wine fridge, floor-to-ceiling inset cabinetry, and naturally transitions into the kitchen, making for the perfect entertaining space. An adjacent prep pantry, with sink, was designed for food and beverage storage/preparation and space to accommodate small appliances and cookware. The bright, open-concept kitchen was carefully designed with a focus on cooking and features custom, inset, Brakur cabinetry, including an island with seating for up to 5, and a Thermador Professional suite of appliances including a 48in. double oven with convection setting and griddle. The adjacent breakfast area opens to a new Trex deck and a cedar privacy fence overlooking the spacious, private backyard. The large family room, featuring a gas fireplace with reclaimed wood and slate tile surround, has sky lights capturing southern light throughout the day. A main floor office, with barn doors and built-in cabinetry, provides an optimal work or flex space. The main level mudroom adjacent to the 2.5 car garage, includes an LG stackable washer and dryer and is the ultimate drop zone with ample storage, and a private staircase leading to the 5th bedroom suite, perfect for a second office, guest, or au pair accommodations. The second floor, expansive primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a large, light filled bath with jetted tub and separate shower, and toilet room with bidet. Three additional bedrooms and two full baths, have generous closet space and feature newer custom shades and carpeting. The full, finished basement features radiant heat flooring, over 1,500 square feet of finished living space, a full bath with steam shower and abundant storage, including a cedar closet. This home lives like new construction with updates including custom Brakur cabinetry throughout, newer aluminum-clad wood windows (2017 & 2020), a new roof (2018), gutters with guards and downspouts (2018), Trex deck/fence (2023), brand new first floor AC (2024), refinished oak hardwood floors (2017), new carpet second floor (2020), solid Madison interior doors with Emtek hardware, and RH, West Elm, & Circa designer lighting. The location is a quick walk into town/Metra, around the block from Lake Ellyn, 3 blocks to Ackerman Sport and Fitness, blocks to Churchill Woods and Perrys Pond, and 5 minutes to I-355. 682 Riford Road is ready for the next owners to experience all that this special community has to offer!
