10-Year-Old Highland Park Stone Tudor Hits Market For 1st Time

HIGHLAND PARK, IL — This 10-year-old Tudor on a half-acre lot in southeast Highland Park was listed publicly for the first time earlier this month. It's already seen its price drop, so one can expect it won't stay available for long.

The five-bedroom brick and stone construction includes a slate roof, cathedral ceilings, a walnut-paneled library, a playground area and an outdoor pool.

The master suite includes dual bathrooms and closets, along with one of the home's five interior fireplaces. The second floor also has a cozy loft, three bedrooms and two full baths.

The open kitchen and family room include over-sized wooden beams, and the home's classy finishes feature hand-scraped hickory floors and intricate stone work, according to its Realtor.com listing. The first-floor family room leads into a west-facing backyard with an outdoor bar, a built-in grill and a refrigerator.

The fully finished lower level has an additional kitchen, a playroom, office, bedroom and two additional bathrooms. The home has five full and two half baths. There's also an in-law apartment, first floor laundry, a dry bar, heated floors and three-car attached garage.

According to property records, the home is owned by the president and co-founder of the Scion Group, which describes itself as the nation's largest privately-held student housing owner and operator.

The land was purchased for $1,270,000 in 2007, before the current home was built. It was first publicly listed Jan. 12 for $3,150,000. The asking price was reduced five days later to $3 million.
