Inspired by a visit to the Rockies, this 15-room home at 21 Chicory Lane in north suburban Riverwoods displays a rough-hewn charm. Built in 1994, it sits on a private wooded acre with an extensive yard and a fishing pond and beach. Inside, the hardwood floors are complemented by unfinished, rustic wood support beams and a cathedral-beamed ceiling in the family room.

BY THE NUMBERS: This home has six bedrooms, 4 1/2 baths, three fireplaces and garage space for three cars.

DETAILS, DETAILS: In addition to a fireplace, the living room also features built-in bookshelves and flagstone flooring (also used in the dining room). On the second floor, a see-through fireplace links the master bedroom with a Jacuzzi room with views of the pond and woods. The four smaller bedrooms and a large playroom each feature a loft, reached by a spiral staircase or removable ladder. The home also has a billiard room and a screened porch.
