On the market: Sugar Grove home is listing of the week
Live among the wildlife in this large and lovely brick, stone and cedar home on the edge of a woodlands conservancy area in far West suburban Sugar Grove.
In fact, a two-story family room window and a beautiful sunroom with heated floor allows residents to literally commune with the birds and other animals roaming through the backyard without ever leaving the temperature-controlled comfort of the house.
A traditional home with many extras, it not only features a sunroom, but also a first-floor den, a basement workroom and hearth room off the kitchen. And the second-floor master bedroom is one of the largest master retreats you will ever see. The full basement remains unfinished.
