About 494 W Fontenay Way

This incredible townhome in sought after Villas of Fontenay is a rare find! It's the largest floorplan and lives like a single-family home with over 2,800 square feet of finished spaces plus a huge basement for storage, play, or hobbies. Nestled in the perfect spot next to the gazebo and pond and backing to mature trees, this end unit provides additional privacy, lovely views, and pure tranquility. As you move inside, your eyes will be immediately drawn to the soaring 2 story ceilings and many large windows in the living space that provide abundant natural light and lovely outdoor views. At the center of this room is the fireplace that offers a beautiful focal point and backdrop for cozy evenings at home. A built-in dry bar makes entertaining a breeze. The kitchen is huge and flows easily to the dining room and living area. Delight in cooking or baking your favorite recipes-a double oven and massive island make it easy to channel your inner top chef and share your creations with family and friends. You'll find ease of flow and multiple prep and serving areas with plenty of room for more than one cook! An incredible amount of cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, and built-in desk provide an opportunity for uncluttered, organized living. On the main level, you'll also find an office that could serve as a bedroom, a half bathroom, and a huge laundry/mudroom. Head to the 2nd level and find a sunny loft-the perfect spot to get lost in a good book or set up a yoga or meditation corner. There are 3 bedrooms, including an incredible primary suite with huge walk-in closet and ensuite bathroom featuring a deep tub, walk-in shower, and extended vanity with dual sinks and seating area for makeup. Most of the home was professionally painted prior to going on the market and you'll find hardwood flooring throughout most of the main level. The basement is a deep pour style with taller ceilings and has roughed in plumbing making it easy to finish the space and add a bathroom. Tons of storage throughout. Nice garage with storage cabinets. Close to everything Palatine has to offer-downtown restaurants, nightlife, shopping, and seasonal events, easy access to Metra train and area expressways, beautiful Palatine Hills golf course, walking and bike trails, and more!
