About this home

With no rear neighbors and private, tree-filled views, this single-story Sitterle home in guard-gated Emerald Forest offers a distinctive garden retreat. Koi ponds, cascading water, and a garden bridge create a peaceful backdrop for outdoor living, while expansive windows bring the setting into view. The 3,290-square-foot layout includes four bedrooms, three-and-a-half baths, and a separate study. A fireplace and built-ins anchor the living room, which opens to the kitchen and breakfast area. The kitchen features Wolf double ovens, a gas cooktop, an island, stone countertops, and a brick cooking alcove with herringbone backsplash. Formal dining connects through a butler's pantry with wine cooler; a spacious walk-in pantry adds counter space and a warming drawer. The primary suite includes wood flooring, a tray ceiling, fireplace, plantation shutters, and an updated bath with dual sinks, a separate tub, and walk-in shower. A guest bedroom has an ensuite bath, while two secondary bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath; one opens to a private rear deck. French doors and library shelving define the separate study. Outside, rock pathways and garden sitting areas complement a screened porch and pergola-covered deck with ceiling fans. Raised garden beds, a potting shed, rainwater collection, and pond and landscape lighting complete the outdoor setting. Additional features include remote-controlled upper living-room window shades, a utility room with sink and storage, a two-car side-entry garage with mini-split and work cabinetry, and attic storage with lift access. Emerald Forest offers two neighborhood entrances, a community pool, tennis court, and basketball/sports court, with access to shopping, dining, and the Loop 1604 corridor.
