742 meadow lane

Stylish, updated, well-located on interior lot close to Copeland Elementary, and offering a finished basement with a sport court and an "English Pub" that you would expect at a much higher price point! Hardwood floors and chic finishes create a warm vibe as soon as you walk in the front door. Formal living and dining rooms flow off the foyer, into each other, and are open through to the back where the family room, kitchen and patio welcome you with calm and friendly spaces. There's also a generously sized office off the front hallway, so working from home can be done with some separation from the rest of the house. Pocket doors between the DR and FR add to flexibility of the space. The kitchen is recently updated with a very smart-looking suite of Thermador and Bosch appliances set off by contrasting counters of granite and quartz. The best thing about the kitchen is that it looks onto a back yard that's an oasis for relaxing with family and friends. It is extensively landscaped with a multi-level paver patio, landscape lighting, and extensively planted beds, plus a hard-piped weber grill set into an outdoor kitchen. The second floor of the home has four bedrooms and three baths, and a second floor laundry. Most unique is the huge bonus room over the garage- a space that really is a bonus for the sheer amount of extra living area it affords. Use it for a combination of 2nd family room, rec room, teen suite, exercise room, or home office. Of note too is the voluminous storage loft in the attic accessed by pulldown stair. The basement simply must be seen. Finished by Meyer Homes in 2010, the basement has a sport court with built-in soccer goal, an English "Pub" with custom black walnut bar and built-ins, heated floors, multi-zone audio and video designed by ABT, dishwasher, ice maker, two beverage refrigerators, and pocket doors, for privacy when needed. Nothing but FUN! The side load garage is very nicely finished with epoxy floors, slat wall, & custom cabinets. The home also features a whole-house backup generator. The location is close to Copeland Elementary School, the North Shore Bike Trail, and downtown Libertyville.
