11 Smokey Court
Bloomington, IL 61704

Come explore this spectacular remodel nestled on exclusive Smokey Court in beautiful Hawthorne Hills! Sprawling Cape Cod inspired custom built walk-out ranch on an oversized manicured lot offers understated elegance, thoughtfully planned entertainment spaces, and modern conveniences on one of Bloomington's most coveted blocks! The long list of recent exterior improvements includes espresso Smart Siding which strikes a vibrant contrast to the fresh white trim, soffit and gutters surrounding the home plus a full tear-off architectural shingle roof. Oversized colonial style windows with arched transoms lend an architectural touch and invite sun-bathed mornings and dreamy afternoons, flooding both levels of this home in natural light! The covered front porch invites you to linger longer and enjoy the lush lawn or follow the professionally landscaped lot around to your fully fenced, private backyard oasis including an impressive inground spa-inspired pool, sprawling paver patio, private entertaining space and inset stone firepit with devoted gas-line, or sneak up to the expansive and newly replaced Ipe Brazilian walnut and cedar deck for a full view of the stars! Other impressive improvements include the double-lined insulated chimney (serving two fireplaces), hard-wired security system, Rainbird irrigation, EV panel upgrade, and recently added zoned Geothermal Comfort heating and cooling system to keep this home running smoothly for years to come... and we haven't even stepped foot inside the front door yet! Follow the rich slate tile through the foyer and into the sprawling main level. The formal dining space just off the foyer is framed perfectly in front of the expansive bay window which overlooks the front yard, then pass into the freshly carpeted and painted vaulted family room offering soaring ceilings, a striking chandelier, newly rebuilt gas fireplace, and expansive views of the open back staircase with floor-to-ceiling transoms and full views of the luscious backyard. A full kitchen renovation is a chef's delight offering Monogram professional grade appliances including side-by-side oversized stainless refrigerator, convection double oven, dishwasher and induction glass cooktop with custom range hood, the striking focal point of the space. Creamy white custom cabinetry with dental moldings and crown complement the lush marble counters, glass tile backsplash, farmhouse sink and expansive breakfast bar for extra seating... Don't miss the expansive walk-in pantry just off the kitchen for convenience! Rich slate tile floors continue throughout the kitchen space into the expansive eat-in dining space which beckons you through the double sliders and onto the raised deck, expanding the entertaining space and bringing the outdoors in! The main floor primary suite offers full views of the gorgeous green backyard, tray ceiling and private access ensuite featuring separate his-and-her vanities, corner tub and walk-in shower. An impressive addition, the newly converted walk-in closet offers nearly 200 square feet of storage space plus private laundry room for accessibility and ease! The second bedroom on the main level offers fresh carpet and paint plus close proximity to the full guest bath, and easy access to the main level office (which could also easily serve as a 3rd bedroom on the main level). Downstairs, this impressive walk-out ranch offers the same quality of the main level including a full basement with two additional expansive bedrooms (both with private ensuites), walk-in closets and a second enormous family room with fresh carpet (don't miss the gorgeous tile hiding under it!), surround sound, gas fireplace with floating mantle, a second laundry space, sprawling storage and a SECOND full kitchen just great for guests, in-laws and entertaining with nearby access to the pool and patio. If you are seeking a sprawling ranch with size and style, luxury upgrades, thoughtful design, and built to last... you've found it.
