An extraordinary new construction opportunity is taking shape in one of Downers Grove's most coveted walk-to-town locations, just steps to Prince Pond, the Metra Main Street Express, and all three top-rated schools. Currently in the early design phase, this residence offers a rare chance to collaborate on selections and personalize finishes while benefiting from the vision of renowned Widler Architecture and curated interiors by HaylieRead Design. This luxury home is thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and elevated entertaining, offering approximately 3,836 sq ft above grade plus an additional 1,400 sq ft in a fully finished deep-pour basement with 9' ceilings. The open-concept layout will feature 6 bedrooms, 5.1 bathrooms, 10' first-floor ceilings, and vaulted ceilings in all second-floor bedrooms, creating a light-filled and expansive feel throughout. At the heart of the home, a showpiece kitchen will include a large island with seating, quartz countertops, custom white oak cabinetry, and a premium appliance package featuring Wolf & Sub-Zero (or equivalent). A fully equipped scullery enhances both function and flow with a second oven, sink, and dishwasher, perfect for seamless entertaining. The primary suite is designed as a true retreat, complete with a freestanding soaking tub, a separate glass-enclosed shower with bench seating, and a dual vanity with quartz countertops. Throughout the home, elevated finishes include premium PurezaWood engineered white oak flooring, extensive custom cabinetry and millwork, oversized Marvin windows, and 8-foot interior doors on the main level. Built with a focus on quality and efficiency, the home will feature dual high-efficiency furnaces, two humidifiers, and advanced insulation systems including mineral wool soundproofing, along with construction practices that meet or exceed Illinois energy standards. The exterior architectural presence is equally impressive, showcasing Hardie Artisan siding complemented by stone cladding, a standing seam metal roof accent, and thoughtfully designed outdoor living spaces including a Unilock paver patio, separate grill patio off the scullery, and a bluestone front porch. The home will also include professional landscaping with irrigation, a 200 AMP electrical service with underground utilities, two high-efficiency water heaters or a tankless option, custom closet systems in all bedrooms, and a gas fireplace with a designer surround. Estimated occupancy is February 2027. This is a rare opportunity to secure a truly custom home in a premier in-town location, where luxury design, thoughtful functionality, and exceptional craftsmanship come together.
