Elegant Spiral Staircase Like Walking On Air In Brick, Stone Home

FRANKFORT, IL — Stairs aren't usually considered to be one of a house's breathtaking features. But not many houses have a spiral staircase like the one in this custom, two-story, brick-and-stone residence in the gated New Frankfort Settlement.

This four-bedroom, 6,719-square-foot home at 855 Basswood Lane went on the market in late September. The asking price is $739,000.

After walking through the arched front door, an elevated ceiling emphasizes the elegant free-floating spiral staircase leads to three upstair bedrooms. The master bedroom, though, is a highlight of the main level and comes with a sitting area and fireplace, as well as master bathroom with separate vanities, a walk-in shower and whirlpool. A columned-entry living room and a tandem family and sun room also are features on the main floor.

Amenities that round out the house include a fully finished English basement with a rec area, fireplace, theater room and fifth bedroom, as well as a lushly landscaped yard with dual paver patios.
