Welcome to 118 S. Chandler Avenue, an exceptional custom-built luxury residence with over 7,400 sft where timeless craftsmanship, sophisticated design, and modern comfort come together to create an extraordinary place to call home. Thoughtfully designed with impeccable attention to detail, this magnificent home offers expansive living spaces, elegant architectural finishes, and resort-style amenities, all set on a beautiful 75x190 park-like lot with an incredible backyard designed for both everyday living and unforgettable entertaining. A stunning custom mahogany front door opens to a grand foyer highlighted by exquisite wainscoting, soaring two-story ceilings, a statement chandelier, and an elegant oak staircase. Rich oak hardwood flooring, oversized baseboards, crown molding, designer lighting, and exceptional millwork continue throughout the main and second levels, creating a warm yet refined atmosphere. The thoughtfully designed floor plan offers beautiful formal living and dining rooms with tray ceilings and custom millwork, while the spectacular family room serves as the heart of the home with its dramatic coffered ceiling, floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, and French doors opening to the outdoor living spaces. A private first-floor office with custom built-ins provides the perfect work-from-home environment. The gourmet chef's kitchen is both stunning and functional, featuring custom cabinetry extending to the ceiling with illuminated glass display cabinets, quartzite countertops, premium Thermador appliances, a large center island with breakfast bar seating, designer lighting, a walk-in pantry, and a beautifully appointed butler's pantry complete with a beverage refrigerator, wine storage, Bosch dishwasher, and additional prep space. The adjoining breakfast room offers a custom built-in workspace and seamless access to the expansive outdoor entertaining areas. Designed with everyday living in mind, the spacious mudroom offers custom built-in lockers, benches, cabinetry, shoe storage, and direct access to the attached three-car tandem garage, providing exceptional organization and convenience. The luxurious primary suite is a private sanctuary featuring architectural ceilings, a private balcony with brand-new Trex decking, two custom walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bath with soaring ceilings, dual quartzite vanities, a makeup station, beverage refrigerator, freestanding Kohler soaking tub, and an incredible steam shower. Three additional ensuite bedrooms, each with beautifully appointed private baths and custom walk-in closets, a spacious second-floor laundry room, and a versatile fifth bedroom or second-floor family room/playroom provide exceptional flexibility to accommodate today's lifestyle, whether as additional sleeping quarters, a children's retreat, media room, or recreation space. The finished lower level offers exceptional additional living space, including a spacious recreation room with a custom wet bar, an exercise room, a private guest bedroom with an adjacent full bath, generous storage areas, and flexible spaces perfect for entertaining, fitness, overnight guests, or multigenerational living. Outdoor living is equally impressive.

Beyond the patio, the oversized, professionally landscaped backyard offers an incredible amount of green space for recreation, play, gardening, or simply relaxing in a private setting. Plus an attached 3-car garage. Perfectly situated on one of Elmhurst's most desirable streets, this exceptional residence is just a short walk to schools, parks, vibrant downtown Elmhurst, where boutique shopping, award-winning restaurants, cafes, entertainment, and the Metra station are all within easy reach.
