Home Details for 800 Glenview Road

The most iconic white house in Glenview, yes, that one...the sprawling one that everyone stops to look at as the curb appeal is breathtaking from Glenview Road. Notable North Shore architect Paul Konstant brings to life the perfect blend of a farmhouse with a timeless modern-day elegance once again. Enter through the stacked fieldstone pillars to pass under the romantic, picture-perfect portico accented with a Bevolo bronzed, oiled hanging lantern, and arrive at the most sensationally divine white modern farmhouse. Prepare for a breathtaking experience as you enter this one-of-a-kind masterpiece, as there is nothing ordinary about it...only over-the-top extraordinary details with the finest materials, craftsmanship, and timeless style. Beautifully set on 1 acre of manicured landscaped grounds and highlighted at dusk with magical exterior lighting, this 5-bed house delivers a rare option with a 1st & 2nd floor primary suite. From the second you step into the custom 12 ft mahogany door flanked with floor-to-ceiling glass transoms, natural light fills through all the countless Marvin windows in all directions with gleaming hand-beveled walnut floors. This expansive first floor starts with the central hub of this circular flow with a stunning all white crisp Chef's kitchen accented in Calcutta Gold marble black splash with matching thick c-tops, custom cabinetry with matching glass cabinets with inlay lighting, 2 sinks, 2 dishwashers & separate fridge/freezer with white matching paneling and walk-in pantry. Ample seating with two breakfast bars and a separate breakfast space highlighted by picturesque double hung windows open to the fabulous family room. Scaled perfectly with stone surround fireplace below the gorgeous coffered ceilings, and leads to a fantastic screened in porch with layered stone FP, heaters, and flatscreen TV. Full laundry room, built-out mudroom space with cobblestone brick floors leads to the heated 2 car garage with stainless steel glass doors. The adjacent detached 2 car garage is ideal, with extra parking for 10 more cars on the property. Back inside from the family room, enter the shiplap paneled dining room that transitions to the front of the home's informal living room with white tailored marble FP and steps out to a covered front patio. Separate hallway leads to a formal office outfitted with vaulted ceilings, Circa lighting, handsome built-in bookcases, full bath and private porch. Right off the main entrance & exclusively its own wing, the first floor primary suite could also be a huge home office or main level gym. Stunning white Carrera marble bath w/heated floor, dual sink metal accented vanity, and spa tub to shower combo. Second floor with 4 more beds all with en-suite including the posh primary suite. All white timeless marble baths with additional 2nd full laundry off primary hallway. 2nd primary suite steps out to private balcony with built-in cabinetry and blissful 5-star hotel bath with white thick marble c-tops, dual sink vanity with Calista fixtures, heated floors, Victoria & Albert soaking tub, Ralph Lauren lighting, and 2 walk-in closets. Huge lower level with rec space built-out side by side bunk beds, entertainment TV section around limestone FP with full bath. 2nd area with bar next to huge step down wine cellar with great storage and display spaces with full storage room. This home is close to 9,000 sq ft of high-end finished space, which could never be duplicated today at this price. There are a total of 6 designated outdoor spaces off the main house, creating the most seamless extension from inside to out. This is a one of a kind property that will always be a showcase show stopper as it's impossible to bring to life again a house that feels like it was curated from a Hollywood movie set...inviting to anyone that passes it but even more intimate once living in it. Special beyond words.
