Went under contract while exempt listed. This beautiful 6 bedroom, 5.1 bathroom home in central Lake Forest is a wonderful blend of historic charm and modern living! Built in 1930, but expanded and updated over the years, the home exudes a stately feel, yet provides for an ease of movement and a floor plan that is aligned with today's expectations. The expansive kitchen/family room area is a perfect environment for everything from a casual meal to a game night with family or friends to a large social gathering. The majestic office/library w/ white walnut paneling throughout, a tray ceiling, and a huge picture widow overlooking the grounds is a wonderful sanctuary, and could be converted into a first floor Master Suite if needed. Upstairs, the current Primary Suite includes a large dressing room, and a Primary bathroom w/ a radiant heat floor, Kohler whirlpool tub, walk-in steam shower, and double vanity. Four additional bedrooms on the 2nd floor provide a variety of options in configuring new spaces or leaving things as they are. The full, finished basement has a large recreation room and a full bathroom. Outside, the lovingly maintained grounds create a 2.66 acre private oasis with a large bluestone patio, gorgeous landscaping, a fenced backyard, and a deep lot w/ mature trees. There is plenty of room to put in a pool or a putting green! The expansive circular drive and several parking areas provides abundant parking space for family and friends. With hardwood floors throughout, high ceilings, a unique architecture and vibe both inside and out, this home is a wonderful opportunity to move right in and enjoy, or build upon the work of former homeowners and create an even more impressive masterpiece.
