When Ordinary Just Won't Do! Nestled among towering oaks and chestnut trees in one of Riverwoods' most sought-after neighborhoods, this extraordinary contemporary residence offers a rare blend of architectural significance, modern luxury, and natural beauty. Set amidst idyllic gardens and serene surroundings, this one-of-a-kind property is truly magical. Originally custom built by an architect for his own personal residence, the home was later thoughtfully enhanced by a renowned fashion designer who lived and worked here for more than 25 years, transforming it into both a sophisticated retreat and inspiring creative studio. Step inside to soaring ceilings, dramatic architectural lines, and two stunning living spaces anchored by breathtaking two-story fireplaces, all framed by sweeping views of the tranquil backyard. The elegant dining room showcases exceptional architectural detail, while the updated boutique-style kitchen with eating area flows seamlessly into the inviting family room. The fluid floor plan creates the perfect balance for intimate everyday living and refined entertaining. A lofted second-floor office overlooks the spectacular main living areas. The luxurious primary suite is a true sanctuary featuring a beautifully updated spa-inspired bath, walk-in closet, and stunning skylit loft space. Two additional bedrooms and an incredible treetop studio complete the second level. Located within a coveted enclave, this distinctive home represents a rare opportunity to own a true piece of functional art. Live surrounded by nature's beauty in a home unlike any other. Additional out building 23X21 can be used for a home business, studio, work room, vehicle collections or year round porch.
