476 E Westleigh Rd, Lake Forest, IL 60045
About this home
Graciously proportioned and beautifully maintained 3,602 sq ft Colonial, perfectly sited on a prime 1.14 acre cul-de-sac lot with circular driveway. The property has a backdrop of mature trees and woods, merely one mile south of downtown Lake Forest (sidewalks to town). The first floor features 9' ceilings, a wide foyer, large sun-drenched rooms, oak hardwood flooring, crown moldings, two substantial fireplaces (symmetricallly placed in living room and family room), a quiet office that is nicely separated from the main living area and two powder rooms (formal and informal). The family room has an impressive beamed and vaulted ceiling, built-in bookcases and wet bar. It is a wonderful gathering place for family and friends! A "wall of windows" sliding glass door provides easy access to the rear yard. The sunny white kitchen with tile flooring has a raised ceiling and large eating area. The 1st floor laundry/mud room is accessible from the kitchen hallway, the attached garage and side front porch. From the foyer, a broad staircase transports you to the second level which also has rich oak hardwood flooring. The spacious primary bedroom suite offers tree-top views, a romantic fireplace, dressing room, walk-in closet and full bathroom. The additional bedrooms are generous in size and share a hallway bathroom. Enjoy the nicely finished full basement! It boasts a huge recreation room, media room and two large unfinished storage areas. The built-in outdoor pool offers summer fun and has a maximum depth of 9'. It was opened and inspected this season. Two pumps are new. The pool and decking are being sold "as is". One may want to refurbish them for a more pristine look, or enjoy as they are. This is a rare and wonderful opportunity to own a pristine and attractive home on 1.14 acres near all of the amenities and conveniences that Lake Forest has to offer.
