Travel through Historic Long Grove Village, cross the iconic Long Grove Covered Bridge, and follow a charming gravel lane where the pace of everyday life begins to slow. Nestled on three private, wooded acres, this Nouveau Rustic retreat blends architectural character, casual luxury, and breathtaking natural beauty in a setting that feels both secluded and connected. From the moment you enter, walls of windows frame sweeping views of the surrounding landscape, bringing the outdoors in and making nature an integral part of daily living. More than 900 square feet of covered outdoor living space, including a welcoming front porch and screened porch, provide the perfect vantage point to enjoy the property's ever-changing seasonal beauty. Thoughtfully designed for comfort and style, the home showcases exceptional craftsmanship throughout, including rift-sawn white oak floors, quarter-sawn white oak doors, distinctive Motawi tile accents, Hubbardton Forge lighting, and carefully curated finishes. A striking stone fireplace with custom copper detailing serves as the focal point of the main living area, while a six-burner Viking range with double ovens and a suite of premium appliances anchor the beautifully appointed kitchen. The versatile floor plan is ideally suited for today's lifestyle, featuring a main-level office, a full bath on the first floor, and beautifully connected living and entertaining spaces. Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite offers a peaceful retreat, while the additional bedrooms are generously sized and filled with natural light. The finished English basement expands the home's living space with an additional bedroom, full bath, flexible recreation areas, and a second fireplace, creating an inviting space for gatherings, guests, or extended family living. Meticulously maintained and in exceptional condition, the property offers the convenience of both an 840-square-foot attached garage, complete with a loft office above, and a separate 1,300-square-foot detached garage, also featuring loft space and endless possibilities for hobbyists, collectors, workshop needs, or additional storage. Both the craftsmanship and the setting are nothing short of extraordinary. The thoughtful design, timeless materials, and breathtaking natural surroundings come together to create a truly exceptional residence-one that represents a rare opportunity to own a home of enduring beauty and character. Every season unveils a new landscape of color and beauty, creating a private sanctuary that feels worlds away, yet remains just minutes from the shops, restaurants, and charm that make Long Grove such a treasured community. Welcome Home.
