Description

Beautifully updated home with 2,500 SF of finished space near downtown Lake Forest! This fabulous home is a true sanctuary of charm, open space, and thoughtful design with incredible views of the grounds. Set on 1.19 lush acres, overlooking Deerpath Golf Course, this home has the warmth today's buyers crave. Mature trees frame the property, offering a serene, park-like setting, while the inviting front porch and large, new screened-in porch hint at the relaxed lifestyle that awaits inside. Step into a bright, airy interior where sunlight pours through new windows, accenting gleaming new hardwood and stone floors throughout! Enjoy spacious rooms with vaulted ceilings in the living room and kitchen, where a stately wood-burning fireplace creates a cozy focal point. Every room opens into the next, revealing elegant updates like designer lighting, curated finishes, and timeless architectural details such as built-in bookcases and crisp, white millwork. The heart of the home is the wonderful new kitchen, featuring white cabinetry, sleek quartz countertops, a breakfast bar, and stainless appliances, all designed to accommodate both everyday living and entertaining. Just off the kitchen, a sun-drenched breakfast area opens to the formal dining area providing the perfect place to start your day, with views of the expansive grounds beyond. From family dinners to summer cocktail parties on the screened porch or stone terraces, the indoor-outdoor living here is incredible and effortless. The generous family room with stone flooring offers a cozy second fireplace and walk-out access to the rear lower terrace and yard-ideal for movie nights, game days, or just curling up with a book. The updated laundry room, powder room and attached two-car garage are also located on this level, adding convenience to everyday living. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms-including a lovely primary suite with a beautifully renovated primary bath and 2 closets. Three more bedrooms and a lovely, updated bathroom and linen closet complete this level. The 4th bedroom is currently being used as a home office. Move right in and enjoy all this wonderful home has to offer with abundant additional storage and so much more. This home has been lovingly maintained and thoroughly modernized for today's discerning buyer. Perfectly located just 1-3 blocks from town, top-rated Lake Forest schools, east commuter train, shops, and the beauty of Lake Michigan, this move-in ready home offers the rare combination of privacy, space, and style in one of the North Shore's most coveted communities.
