Welcome to this solid brick RANCH home in EAST Lake Forest! First time on the market! As you come inside, you are greeted by the inviting living room, centered by a striking stone fireplace. Gleaming hardwood floors and neutral walls flow into the dining room, creating a warm and welcoming space ideal for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is light and bright with windows on two sides, offering views of both the front yard and the private backyard. Just off the main living space, the atrium-style sunroom provides a wonderful flexible area-playroom, office, or cozy den - perfect to view all 4 seasons! Down the hall are four generously sized bedrooms with good closet space and two full bathrooms. The finished portion of the basement adds valuable living space with a comfortable rec room complete with a charming game table nook. A large utility area includes washer and dryer, a workbench/maker's space, and wine storage. The 2.5-car garage offers excellent storage, and the driveway provides ample room for guest parking. Outside, the picture-perfect backyard is a gardener's delight, offering space to relax, plant, and enjoy the beauty of the surrounding mature landscape. Ideal East Lake Forest location just a stone's throw from the high school - top ranked LFHS, Sheridan Elementary School, Lake Forest Beach, the Metra train station, and the charming shops and restaurants of Market Square! Situated on a beautiful 70x180 lot adorned with mature trees, this home sits on a quiet, sidewalk-lined street with lantern lighting. Lovingly cared for by one family, exuding pride of ownership for many decades, it is now ready to welcome in its next chapter. Welcome home!
