Home Details for 36W617 Crane Road

Privately set beyond a long approach and surrounded by protected forest preserve, this distinguished Georgian estate presents a rare opportunity to own a refined retreat on nearly seven secluded acres-just minutes from the heart of St. Charles. Timeless Antebellum architecture is complemented by extensive recent improvements, creating a residence that feels both enduring and current. The home lives comfortably as five bedrooms, anchored by a main-floor primary suite offering a serene, spa-inspired bath. Throughout the interior, rich millwork, hardwood flooring, natural stone, and soaring ceilings reflect a commitment to craftsmanship and thoughtful design. At the center of the home, the chef's kitchen has been tastefully refreshed with updated cabinetry, premium appliances, and an expansive island, flowing seamlessly into the family room where a dramatic fireplace and French doors open to a screened porch overlooking the grounds. Multiple gathering spaces, fireplaces, and laundry on both the first and second floors provide exceptional functionality for everyday living and entertaining alike. The exterior setting is truly exceptional. Over the past several years, the property has benefited from over $1 million in curated enhancements, transforming the grounds into a private, resort-caliber environment. A completely rebuilt in-ground pool, custom outdoor kitchen, and professionally designed landscaping create a setting of uncommon privacy and beauty. The result is an outdoor experience that feels both expansive and intimate-ideal for quiet mornings or sophisticated entertaining. Substantial system and infrastructure updates provide peace of mind and long-term value, including all new windows, new furnaces and air conditioning condensers, new hot water heaters, a new well pump and pressure tank, upgraded water treatment system, repainted exterior, new driveway, oversized gutters with guards, and a refinished heated garage. All of this is offered within one of the region's most desirable communities, served by top-awarded St. Charles schools, with easy access to scenic walking and biking paths and the dining, shopping, and cultural offerings of downtown St. Charles. Rarely available, this is a property of distinction-where privacy, scale, and refinement converge in a setting designed to be enjoyed for generations.
