This absolutely gorgeous palatial mansion is located 45 miles outside downtown Chicago and 20 minutes from O'Hare Airport. There are lots of hotels, restaurants and accommodation nearby.
The residence was built in the 1920’s and is reminiscent of classic pre civil war mansions, making it perfect for period pieces or magical fantasy genres.
The architectural firm of Childs and Smith captured the purity of this classic structure while updating the space to show a modern grandness.
The home is on the National Register of Historic Places and is an example of a bygone era. It is completely furnished and accessorized with period pieces demonstrating the opulence of the times.
The property is well manicured and is almost park-like. The home’s brick exteriors will bring you back in time and it gives the space a regal castle-like feel.
Once you enter the home, you are greeted by a grand foyer that features a gorgeous staircase, a chandelier and antique décor and furniture.
The home has multiple seating spaces, perfect for providing different looks. There is a sunroom, a formal living room, a family room in the attic and a library.
The formal living room is gorgeous with its antique furniture and décor, beautiful grand piano and grand fireplace. A super regal space that exudes opulence.
The library serves as a great refuge for reading and playing music. It has gorgeous wood paneling, dark leather seats and a moody mysterious vibe that looks like it pulled design cues from The Godfather movies
The home also has a massive gourmet kitchen with high-end stainless steel kitchen appliances, a large kitchen island counter and custom cabinets and a custom refrigerator. There is also a cozy breakfast nook and a kitchenette/butler pantry area.
The formal dining area is a mix of old and new with a more modern gray palette in contrast with the antique hardwood furniture and crystal chandelier.
The bedrooms are massive, with the master bedroom featuring a four-post bed, white walls with wainscoting and beautiful antique furniture. The other bedrooms feel more transitional with their more modern color palettes, quirky rugs and antique furniture offering a lot of variety when it comes to the bedrooms.
The bathrooms are also the beacon of opulence with their massive size, dramatic tiles and high-end fixtures. Lots of opportunities for commercial shoots and so much more.
The mansion also features a gorgeous finished attic with a family room and a craft room with a more laid back modern minimalist Scandinavian vibe, another unique room that adds variety to the different looks this space provides.
The home also has an exterior staircase, a laundry room with an adjoining powder room and a detached garage with a car port attached.
The interior and exterior setting lends itself to many filming opportunities including commercials, film and TV and catalogues. The estate is also the perfect setting for holidays, professional events and weddings.
The location of the home provides an open space where traffic congestion does not exist and there is plenty of street parking as well as a large private driveway.
A quiet, grand and versatile space that will add value to your production.
