Vast 1930 Estate Listed Under $700,000 In Bannockburn

BANNOCKBURN, IL – It's not often a massive, 87-year-old estate hits the market for under a million dollars, but on Monday, the Whit Muir Estate, a Tuscan-style brick estate on a quiet Bannockburn cul-de-sac saw its price slashed below $700,000.

Be forewarned though — the bank-owned property is being sold "As Is" and needs some work, according to its listing.

The 1930-built home includes five bedrooms, three full and three half baths, a pool, a tennis court, a pond with bridge, a greenhouse and 4,829 square-feet of living space on a 2.34 acre lot, which also includes a pool/guest house.

Sweeping views surround the serene space with a sun room, kitchen with breakfast bar and a stone family room opening to a walk-out trellised deck. There's also four fireplaces, a large first-floor laundry room, a formal dining room and a library.
