Overlooking the pool is the living room with tons of natural light. The luxurious primary suite features a spa-inspired ensuite bath with a marble vanity, custom-tiled shower, smart Bluetooth fan/speaker, and smart commode. Two additional bedrooms on the main level share a beautifully remodeled hall bath, highlighted by floor-to-ceiling tile and a tub/shower combination.

Modern smart home amenities include wired speakers, Ring doorbell, a Ring security system. Ideally located within walking distance to Green Lake Park with its lake, playground, and tennis courts, this home is also part of award-winning Districts 96 & 125, serving Prairie Elementary, Twin Groves Middle School, and Stevenson High School.
