About This Property

Welcome to your dream home in the sought-after enclave of Far East Lake Forest, set back in a private setting off of the prestigious Sheridan Road. Originally built as a Coach House in 1927, this exquisite residence has been meticulously expanded and renovated over the years, now offering an expansive 4,900 square feet of living space on a very private 1.27-acre lot. This majestic home features 5 bedrooms and 4.5 baths, perfectly blending historic charm with modern amenities. The first-floor primary suite provides a serene retreat, overlooking the beautifully landscaped yard. The family room, adjacent to the kitchen, features a charming fireplace and French doors that open to the patio and incredible yard, perfect for indoor-outdoor living and entertaining. The expansive kitchen, a blank canvas awaiting your personal touch, offers a spacious dine in area and room for a walk in pantry, great potential for a custom dream design. The living room is a showstopper, with a large picture window that floods the space with natural light and a cozy fireplace for those chilly evenings. A versatile den/library with its own entrance offers additional private space for work or relaxation. The first floor also hosts a convenient laundry room. Upstairs, two separate wings with separate staircases, provide flexibility and privacy. One wing includes two bedrooms with a shared Jack and Jill bathroom, while the other features a bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, an additional full bathroom, and a large flex space ideal for an office or extra bedroom. The home boasts a three-car attached garage with incredible storage options and a gated driveway for added security. Close to downtown, 2 different beaches, 2 different Metra stops, shopping, incredible restaurants, Fort Sheridan, and the award winning Lake Forest schools, this impressive home offers endless possibilities and is waiting for your personal touch. Schedule a viewing today to experience the charm and potential of this unique property. PLEASE NOTE:: The kitchen is currently in an unfinished state, ready for you to make it your own. A design rendering is available, along with pricing and layout options from a local top kitchen designer and general contractor, detailed in the additional documentation. The picture shown in the photos is only a rendering to provide design inspiration. This home also does not have a basement.
