About This Property
Masterpiece estate designed by Adam Groth (Beaux arts, c. 1906).
Built from the same local limestone as the U.S. White House stairs
and Chicago's famous Water Tower. Sits atop Cherry Hill in
unincorporated Will County, overlooking four pristine, park-like
acres. Forty-four panels of original stained glass. The flagship
among unique houses in Pilcher State Park. Six minutes to
Providence High School. Nine minutes to New Lenox Metra. Sun rises
pink through rosette window in master bedroom. Master suite opens
onto panoramic balcony, perfect for romantic evenings under the
stars. Enjoy enchanting views in every season from the massive
enclosed front porch. Charming, old-world style kitchen is classic
and understated, with authentic 1920s tile and latticed windows.
Magnificent living and dining rooms, ten-foot ceilings, each with
working fireplace. East wing features bay windows for lots of
morning sunshine. Built-in cabinets and closets throughout.
Enormous attic and basement with workshop. SPACIOUS HOME OFFICE
WITH HIGH-SPEED INTERNET. Estate includes four acres of peaceful,
landscaped retreat; three car garage, two-story carriage house,
pump house, and garden shed. Magnificent limestone staircase on
east side of property leads down to seasonal creek. Daffodils,
peonies, and lilies of the valley line the driveway each spring.
Early risers will see deer, foxes, and red tail hawks. Relax all
summer under the ancient wisteria vines. Go sledding in your own
front yard. Two-story carriage house has previously been used as a
basketball court but could be renovated for rental income, office,
or granny suite. Nestled in the Pilcher State Park conservancy
district, a mesic forest of 700+ acres, the estate offers privacy,
lower property taxes, a stable historic neighborhood, and friendly
protective services of both County and City. Stroll beside flowing
waterways and learn about local wildlife habitats at the Pilcher
Park Nature Center. Go fishing or kayaking at the historic Pilcher
Park Dam. Birdwatchers, artists, and photographers will love the
Bird Haven Greenhouse and Conservatory. Golfers and disk-golfer
swill enjoy proximity to Highland Park and the Woodruff Golf
Course. Roads and trails through the Park are wheelchair accessible
and are used year-round for hiking, biking, skiing, snowshoeing and
running. Minutes from shopping, highways, fitness, schools,
restaurants and all the best that New Lenox and Joliet have to
offer. THIS FOUR-ACRE ESTATE IS VACANT AND AVAILABLE FOR SHOWINGS
AND IMMEDIATE MOVE-IN DURING SOCIAL DISTANCING ORDERS.
