The white kitchen includes granite countertops, a Wolf range, newer Bosch refrigerator and dishwasher, and breakfast-bar seating. An adjoining breakfast room opens to the spacious family room addition, where a vaulted ceiling, walls of windows, and multiple sets of French doors fill the space with natural light and connect the interior to the yard.

The finished basement provides additional recreation space and plenty of storage. Outside, the paver patio overlooks a quiet, park-like yard surrounded by mature arborvitae and layered plantings. Major improvements include a new roof in 2023, Renewal by Andersen windows in 2021, two newer furnaces, and one central air unit replaced in 2024. Additional features include two-zone heating and cooling, lawn irrigation, backyard storm drainage connected to the city storm sewer, and an oversized two-car garage. Walk to Cherokee Elementary and the train, with easy access to downtown Lake Forest and Route 41.
