From elegant and stately mansions to modern, environmentally-friendly abodes, the North Shore is full of one-of-a-kind homes.

Each week, Patch features one ‘Wow House’ that catches our attention. This week, it's a $3.45M modern mansion in central Glenview. 

Located at 2275 Winnetka Rd., this six bedroom beauty was built in 2006 and features all the immenities you might expect with the price tag. A walnut floor library with a hand-stenciled ceiling and chandelier? Check. An elegant living room with a grand marble fireplace that separates the room into two separate seating areas? Check. A butler's pantry/wet bar with a pounded copper sink, double tiered marble counter top, wine refrigerator and glass accent cabinets? Check.

The home also boasts a top-of-the-line custom built kitchen with custom floor to ceiling cabinets, limestone floor and plenty of recessed lighting. Even the master bedroom has a chandelier, not to mention a walk-in closet and outside balcony overlooking the grounds.

Oh, the house also features a wave pool, tennis court and movie theater, as if you'd ever want to leave your chandalier bedroom.
