About the property

Enjoy the ultimate country getaway at this stunning ranch that sets the standard for luxury and elegance outside one of the most charming suburbs of the city. The interior spans 7,000+ sq. ft. over two levels of impeccably designed space and features 7 bedrooms, 7 king-size beds, and 4.5 bathrooms to comfortably accommodate up to 22 guests. Set on 7 acres of bucolic farmland, the home with an inground heated pool showcases gorgeous views of horses roaming behind classic white ranch fences.

Enter through impressive double doors to the residence’s grand foyer that leads to the main level social areas. A large great room with soaring ceilings and a luxe seating area is centered around a wall of windows and glass doors that open to a 3-season room and never-ending views of the surrounding countryside.

The residence’s designer kitchen is every chef’s dream with high end appliances including a gas range, prep island, and bar seating as well as a premium housewares package for creating and serving any type of meal. Enjoy dining with family and friends right in the kitchen at the 6-person table with a view of the TV and fireplace in the family room or take a more formal approach to entertaining in the separate elegant dining room in the front of the home.

Four bedrooms are located on the main level, including the exclusive primary suite with magnificent king bed, smart TV, huge walk-in closet, private access to the 3-season room, and ensuite bath. A garden tub under a large picture window, separate walk-in steam shower, and dual vanity sinks are hallmarks of the impressive bathroom.

Bedrooms 2, 3, and 4 all have king beds with luxury linens, smart TVs, and lovely views of the surrounding property. Also on the main level is a guest powder room and completely stocked laundry room with a wine fridge.

On the estate’s ground level are bedrooms 5, and 6 (each with a king bed) and 7 that has a king bed and twin bunk bed. Additional sleeping options include a cozy full-size bed and a 2nd twin bunkbed. These bedrooms share the home’s 3rd and 4th full bathrooms.

The lower level is also home to a fantastic entertainment area with full kitchen, a bar, cozy lounge ideal for gathering to watch the big game on the smart TV next to the fireplace; and the home’s showstopper - a new outdoor hot tub that will be a favorite spot for every guest in the group.

Nearly every room in the home either overlooks or leads to the estate’s unparalleled outdoor living areas where the main attraction is an oversized inground heated pool. Surrounding the pool are several seating and sun lounge areas, a covered dining spot, and BBQ grill. Make your way across the expansive lawns to the stone firepit, a perfect place to snuggle under the stars at night. Unmatched views of expansive sky, endless fields, and roaming horses at the neighboring farm can be appreciated from every vantage point across the property. Whether coming in from out of town or just need a relaxing respite from the hustle and bustle of the city everyone will love this amazing ranch retreat.

Just wrapped up a fantastic couple of nights here with my friend and our dogs. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfect. The space was clean, spacious, and pet-friendly, and we all had such a great time relaxing and exploring. My dogs were in heaven! A huge thank you for going above and beyond to accommodate my specific needs…. it made our stay truly stress-free and enjoyable. We’ll definitely be back!

Our extended family of 19 (traveling from Vermont to California) had a wonderful vacation at this McHenry home. It comfortably accommodated our large group while remaining clean, cozy, and inviting. We had all our meals together here, making great use of the large kitchen. It was well-stocked with all the pots, pans, plates, and silverware we needed, and the dishwasher worked perfectly. Our favorite spot was the screened-in porch, where many of us gathered for breakfast each morning. The amenities were fantastic—we spent plenty of time utilizing the pool, hot tub, and firepit. The kids thoroughly enjoyed the downstairs game room as well. Logistics were seamless. There was plenty of parking for our 7 cars, with room to spare. Check-in and check-out were simple, and the host from Book A Memory was highly responsive to all of our questions. We made great family memories here and highly recommend this property!

I highly recommend the place. With ample space for a huge group like ours. The house was so spacious. We had everything we needed. We had an issue with flooding but the host was responsive and addressed the issue right away. Just a suggestion, the toilet and tubs can use some update.
