Big House on the Prairie! COMING SOON in New Trier district, this home is surrounded by gorgeous gardens, flowering fruit trees, prairie grasses and natural beauty on nearly 1/2 acre. In 2009 the homeowners transformed their sweet suburban home and the lot next door into a nature lover's oasis. The original home more than doubled in size with custom 2-story addition and the original home was gut renovated to create luxury living with modern convenience, plus a nod to the environment. South-facing solar panels, raised veggie gardens and rain gardens designed for optimal drainage all play homage to Mother Earth. The sunny interior offers custom millwork, hardwood floors, skylights and spectacular views in every direction with new insulated windows. There are 5 bedrooms, 3 full baths & 2 half baths plus a large office on the 1st floor. The open floorplan includes a huge gourmet kitchen with two islands and big family room with floor to ceiling windows and access to the screened porch and outdoor patio. Gracious
