Property Description 9030 Elm Avenue, Burr Ridge, IL, 60527
Set on a beautifully oversized Burr Ridge lot, this five-bedroom, three-bath unincorporated residence is a masterclass in thoughtful construction, energy efficiency, and architectural volume. From the moment you enter, soaring vaulted ceilings create an immediate sense of scale-peaking at approximately 18 feet in the living room, with elevated ceiling heights continuing throughout the home, including 10'+ ceilings in the kitchen and dramatic bedroom vaults. The second level is anchored by an open gallery landing that overlooks the main living areas below, creating visual connection, light flow, and architectural interest. This gallery-style layout serves as a central hub connecting the upper bedrooms and adds to the home's sense of openness and design intention. This home was built with true radiant floor heating throughout, utilizing copper piping (not electric wire) across every level-including the main living areas, bedrooms, basement, garage floor, and the attic space above the garage. That upper-level space was intentionally heated by the owner and can easily function as an artist loft, studio, or creative flex space. This comprehensive radiant system delivers exceptional comfort and efficiency, reflected in remarkably low utility costs even during extreme winter conditions. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and generous ceiling height that enhances both light and openness. A convenient bedroom on the main level offers flexibility for guests or a private home office. The primary suite provides a spa-level retreat with a heated Jacuzzi tub and a separate steam shower. Hardwood floors and copper plumbing are installed throughout the home. The basement offers approximately 96-inch ceiling height, providing outstanding potential for finished living space, recreation, or wellness use. A four-car heated garage includes a utility sink and is fully integrated into the radiant heating system-an uncommon and highly desirable feature at this level. A convenient laundry closet on the second level adds everyday functionality right where it's needed. Listing includes a fully provisioned 3D Virtual Reality tour allowing buyers to experience a walk through from anywhere. A rare combination of architectural presence, intelligent engineering, and year-round comfort-this home delivers luxury that is felt, not just seen.
