This vintage treasure is tucked away on a coveted lane in East Lake Forest, steps to town & train, & among grand homes. This Ralph Milman designed classic French home, built in 1928, features distinguished architectural features such as barrel vaulted & 10 foot ceilings, directoire moldings & millwork, classic French doors & 1/4 sawn oak floor. The welcoming foyer with decorative niches & original moldings features a traditional marble checkerboard floor. The gracious living room has four sets of original French doors -- one opening to the conservatory with copper roof, which is a lovely spot to enjoy the ambiance of the private yard with bluestone patio & fountain. You will enjoy the updated chef's kitchen with full-height cabinets, stainless appliances, granite counters & marble mosaic tile backsplash. The second level has four bedrooms & four full baths. The master suite enjoys "his & hers" baths & dressing rooms. The rear-loading garage has a secret drive & access to Oakwood.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
