Craftsman-style home near downtown Naperville

This craftsman-style cedar and stone home near downtown Naperville is a nearly new prize.

Built only six years ago, it features high-gloss hardwood floors throughout the first floor, with the exception of the mud room where floors are ceramic tile. The upstairs hall is also hardwood, leading to four carpeted bedrooms.

The home boasts 9-foot ceilings on the first floor; an eat-in island kitchen with stainless steel appliances, including a wine cooler; a gas-starter fireplace in the family room, a second-floor laundry room and vaulted or cathedral ceilings and skylights in selected rooms.

The yard is fenced and has an underground sprinkler system and a lovely paver patio with fire pit. The home also has a three-car garage and an unfinished basement plumbed for a future bathroom.
