Description

Situated just steps from Market Square, this designer-owned home is an exquisite and rare find, perfectly serving as a pied-a-terre or a full time home! Meticulously renovated and designed for simplicity and ease of maintenance, this home offers 4000 square feet of finished space without the need for expensive upkeep. A recipient of 2025 Lake Forest Historic Preservation Award, this exquisite home is renovated to perfection and blends timeless elegance with striking designer finishes. It boasts a warm, inviting interior with carefully chosen color schemes, artfully placed light fixtures, gorgeous wall and window treatments, charming fireplaces, and oversized windows. Enter through a gracious foyer with subtle hand-painted walls, arched doorways, and gleaming floors. The spacious living room, ideal for entertaining or relaxing, features a stunning fireplace, lacquered walls, and a custom bar complete with a wine fridge and refrigerated drawers. The kitchen is a true masterpiece, with top-of-the-line appliances, sleek marble countertops, Katonah hardware, and ample storage. Adjacent is a formal dining room with a large bay window, silk wallpaper with hand-painted accents, and a beautiful chandelier and antique wall sconces that add to the inviting ambiance. Natural light floods the spacious family room, with its beautiful fireplace and coffered ceilings-a comfortable place to gather with family and friends. Down the hall, the office is bathed in light from walls of windows. The primary bedroom suite embodies understated elegance and comfort, with a luxurious bath and built-in wardrobes. Three additional bedrooms are filled with light and share two well-appointed bathrooms. On the lower level, attention to detail continues with a spacious recreational area featuring a gorgeous fireplace with marble surround, wool carpeting, and a bank of drawers with two integrated beverage refrigerators. There's also a beautiful bath, a second laundry room, and ample storage. Step outside to enjoy stunning landscaping enhanced by new landscape lighting, a fenced yard offering privacy, and bluestone patios perfect for gatherings or a morning coffee. The addition of a generator ensures uninterrupted comfort and convenience. Other highlight include, heated bathroom floors, invisible built in speakers, heated garage with epoxied floors and new windows. A true gem in the heart of Lake Forest, surrounded by the charm and conveniences of in-town living.
