Elegant Retro Elements Make Custom Home Perfect For Entertaining

Wow! House: Relax inside with the lower-level wet bar or outside with the private patio, in-ground pool and fire pit.

INVERNESS, IL — Walking through this five-bedroom Inverness home, it's easy to tell it was built in 1967. But that's not a bug, it's a feature. Those retro touches give the 4,100-square-foot a certain amount of class and elegance without skimping on modern conveniences.

The home, 1444 Appleby Road, went on the market in May, and it has seen two price drops since then. It's currently listed at $770,000.

Skylights and vaulted ceilings highlight the open layout, and the gourmet kitchen is stocked with modern, built-in appliances. The master bedroom comes with a massive walk-in closet and four-piece bathroom.
