Description
Expanded and Move-In Ready in Lake Forest's Coveted Northmoor Neighborhood. Ideally situated on nearly half an acre in the heart of Lake Forest's Northmoor neighborhood, this expanded tri-level home offers timeless curb appeal, thoughtful updates, and an exceptional location. Nestled just off Sheridan Road, the neighborhood enjoys sidewalks, mature trees, and a strong sense of community-just a short walk or bike ride to South Park, the beach, town, and top-rated Lake Forest schools including Sheridan Elementary. A custom renovation by Downey Szafarz Architects in 2016 introduced a spacious family room, mudroom, walk-in pantry, and an attached 2.5-car garage-creating a modern, functional layout perfectly suited to today's lifestyle. The open main level is filled with natural light and anchored by an updated kitchen (Bosch appliances, 2018) that flows easily into generous living and entertaining spaces. Recent mechanical upgrades enhance comfort and efficiency, including a brand-new roof (2024), high-efficiency furnace with three-zone Ecobee smart thermostat (2025), and new water heater (2025). The walk-out lower level features new carpeting (2025), and the interior was professionally painted in 2019. A professionally installed interior drain tile system by U.S. Waterproofing (2025), complete with a lifetime transferable warranty, adds valuable peace of mind. With more than 3,700 square feet of finished living space and a quiet, walkable setting, this home offers the ideal combination of space, neighborhood charm, and long-term investment in one of Lake Forest's most desirable enclaves.
