On the Market: Rebuild in Rolling Meadows
This home is a unique find. Located in the very convenient, yet secluded Plum Grove area of Rolling Meadows, it is literally a country home in the heart of the suburbs.
Rebuilt from the foundation up in 2004, this brick and stucco home features a finished walkout basement, a gourmet kitchen with hardwood floors, granite countertops and top-of-the-line appliances, three gas fireplaces and a library with a wet bar.
Truly an artist’s home, it sports custom woodwork, lots of interesting arches and an incredible paint job that can easily be changed if it is not to the new owner’s tastes.
