Welcome to 117 North Monroe, where timeless design and refined living come together in perfect harmony. This exceptional stone and cedar shake residence is set on a 77' wide lot, allowing for approx 6,000 sft and a grand feeling. It was masterfully crafted by a renowned builder. Ideally situated in one of Hinsdale's most coveted locations, you can enjoy a true walk-to-everything lifestyle just moments from town, the train, Burns Field Park, and Monroe School. A gracious wrap-around front porch, complete with a charming swing, sets a warm and inviting first impression. Step inside and you'll immediately appreciate the meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail throughout, sun-filled rooms with an abundance of windows overlooking beautiful views. Gleaming hardwood floors, exquisite millwork, soaring ceilings, and fresh paint create a backdrop of understated elegance. At the heart of the home, the beautifully remodeled kitchen is a true showpiece. A grand quartzite island anchors the space, complemented by Thermador and Sub-Zero appliances, custom cabinetry, a butler's pantry, and a separate walk-in pantry. The sun-filled breakfast area overlooks the serene backyard, creating the perfect setting for entertaining and family gatherings. A custom-built-in chef's desk with ample storage adds both charm and functionality. The adjoining family room, centered around a striking stone fireplace, features a wall of windows that frame picturesque views and open seamlessly to the patio. For more formal occasions, the elegant dining room is ready to host, while it has a casual feel as well. The sophisticated den with coffered ceilings, built-in bookcases, and French doors to the front porch offers a refined yet comfortable retreat. Designed with everyday living in mind, the first floor also includes a beautifully updated mudroom and laundry room with custom cubbies, a sink, and ample storage, along with a stylish powder room featuring designer finishes. Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite is a private sanctuary, featuring architectural ceilings, a gorgeous framed fireplace, and a peaceful sitting area. The spa-inspired bath invites relaxation with a soaking tub, walk-in shower, dual vanities, and two custom walk-in closets. Three additional spacious bedrooms and two full baths complete the second floor. The third level offers even more flexibility, with a cozy sitting or study area and an additional bedroom with a full bath, perfect for guests or a private home office. The finished lower level is designed for entertaining and leisure, featuring high ceilings, a sprawling recreation room, a media room/golf simulator space, a pub-style wet bar with multiple refrigerators and an ice maker, a wine cellar, an exercise room (or sixth bedroom), a full bath, and generous storage. Outdoors, beautifully landscaped grounds and lush lawn surround a paver patio with a built-in grill and fire pit, ideal for gatherings of all sizes. With a brand-new roof in fall 2025, fresh paint throughout, and new carpeting in the bedrooms and lower level, this home is perfection, and located in the Heart of Hinsdale.
