Description

Welcome home to this very special Lake Forest gem that has been meticulously and thoughtfully renovated top to bottom with all the modern finishes. From the moment you enter the home, you are greeted with warmth and airiness from all the amazing natural light and open flow throughout. The first floor features a gorgeous brand new white kitchen appointed with beautiful Quartz countertops, timeless shaker style cabinetry with soft close doors, classic subway backsplash tile and new Samsung stainless steel appliances including a new wine refrigerator. Adjacent to the kitchen, you will find a fantastic spacious eating area and an awesome oversized family room with vaulted ceiling and an impressive two-sided stone wood burning fireplace. In addition, on the first floor, you will also find a delightful living room and dining room, the much needed private first floor office, a brand new white powder room and a laundry room you would think Joanna Gaines designed. On the second floor, you will find four spacious bedrooms and two brand new white bathrooms, both appointed with sophisticated Carrera vanities, gorgeous porcelain tile and all new bathroom fixtures. You will also find plenty of closet space on the second floor including an easy accessible attic dormer for additional storage. On the lower level you have a huge recreation room along with a huge utility/storage room. There has been over $200k in recent improvements, some of which includes a new Bryant two zone (can be wired for three zone) furnace, a new Bryant air conditioner, a new air cleaner, a new Aprilaire steam humidifier, a new dual sump pump system with a new battery backup system, a new water softener, a new washer and dryer, a new 200 amp electrical panel, a new roof that was redesigned with a slight pitch for longer longevity, new oversized rain gutters, a rebuilt chimney and crown at roof line, new front and side doors and the list goes on and on. The entire interior of the home was just recently professionally repainted in a tasteful neutral color. Nothing to do here except move in and enjoy! Home is located on a private one acre parcel with an attached three car garage and a convenient circular driveway. Just minutes away from Costco, Whole Foods and Hawthorne Mall. Also, easily accessibility to tollway and highway. This is a wonderful and rare find!
