Local Executive Lists $3.2 Million Mansion In West Winnetka

WINNETKA, IL — A French Provincial-style mansion built in 2001 in west Winnetka was listed Tuesday with an asking price virtually unchanged since it was last purchased nearly four years ago.

The two-story stone structure sits on an 0.6-acre lot west of Hibbard Road near the Winnetka Golf Club. It includes six bedrooms and more than 6,600 square feet of aboveground living space, as well as a recently remodeled basement.

"This is a true Winnetka that radiates casual elegance [and] indoor-outdoor living with space for anything and everyone," according to its listing.

The design features a two-story rotunda foyer entry with a bridal staircase. The home's living and dining rooms include arched ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows, while an oversized family room with a barrel ceiling open into the backyard.

The rest of the interior includes an oversized kitchen with a large island and separate breakfast area, a separate office with its own bar area, custom shelving and a fireplace.

---

Outside, the grounds includes a 40-foot-long swimming pool, hot tub, a grill, several seating areas and a built-in fire pit surrounded by mature trees.

---

The home also includes a three-car garage, a second private office upstairs and a basement recreation area with a fireplace, billiard area, custom movie theater, exercise room and a bedroom suite — on top of the five other bedroom suites on the second floor.

The 21st century mansion was built by Northfield-based Heritage Luxury Builders, now known as Heritage Luxury Homes, whose owners Leo and Milena Birov purchased the parcel for $770,000 in 1999 before building the house and selling it for $2.675 million the next year, according to county property records.

Its current owners, Illinois Tool Works Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary Normal Finch and his wife, Kimberly, purchased the home in 2017 as they relocated from North Carolina.

---

The property's estimated market value for taxing purposes last year was $1.9 million, according to the Cook County Assessor's Office. The home's annual property tax bill is about $50,000.
