Description
A rare opportunity to own a piece of Lake Forest history....this amazing Lasker Greenhouse has been updated and expanded to create the most majestic living space! Poised on .63 acres you will find this 4000 square foot home screaming with character and charm! New white kitchen, atrium ceilings, unbelievable natural light filled rooms, high ceilings and optional first or second floor primary suites! From the moment you enter this home you will be struck by it's pure beauty- beautiful tile entry way with formal powder room and lovely hearth room tucked below the staircase are out of a storybook setting. Enjoy the open floor plan concept of the kitchen and family room with gorgeous views of the English gardens and low maintenance plantings as well as arches and vines framing in the garden wall to the rear of the yard. Large formal Dining space is drenched in sunlight as well with doors to the newer, sleek decking and outdoor fireplace. Formal Living room is perfect for entertaining and complete with wet bar! Sunroom offers sliding doors to the amazing deck as well. First floor Primary bedroom showcases sliding doors to deck, built in's, fireplace and full bath. Second floor has two access points- a standard staircase to two bedrooms and a spiral staircase to 2nd floor Primary bedroom. Each bedroom in the house has its own private bath as well. The original garage was converted into an art studio and the 3rd stall into a home office both with vaulted and beamed ceilings. The grounds are absolutely incredible and are continuously blooming new, in season plantings, lots of statuary that will remain with the home and a raised vegetable garden. Roof is Ludowici clay tile and asphalt shingling. Basement is a partial cellar and has washer & dryer hookup. This home is tucked secretly down a private drive and behind iron gates and has been featured on many historical home tours throughout the years. It is a true treasure! Note: Albert Lasker Estate, aka Mill Road Farms, was built in the 1920's and designed by David Adler. This 420 acre estate originally consisted of a 55 room main house, 26 outer buildings and a private 18 hole golf course. Thirteen of the outer buildings are still standing today and have been converted to single family homes such as this home (former greenhouse.) Other examples of buildings on the property are the original theatre, horse barns, cocktail house, music lounge and gate house to name a few.
