A sprawling estate in the northern suburbs has just been named the most beautiful home for sale in Illinois by Architectural Digest.

According to Jameson Sotheby's International Realty, Richard and Michaela Parrillo are selling the 25,000-square-foot, 7-bedroom mansion at 1932 North Burling in Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood. The couple built the home surrounded by manicured gardens nearly 10 years ago.
