Convenient to town, the Lake, Sheridan Elementary School and Lake Forest High School, the setting for this soaring, custom-built home is visionary. Never before on the market, this one-owner home embodies a rare and special vibe, one that celebrates light and space in ways that create a dramatic gallery-like aura. The one-acre property is private and secluded, yet in the heart of everything you love about East Lake Forest. Available for the first time, this unique, open, and sun-filled home will capture your heart and your imagination! The 2-story foyer and living room offer huge windows with views of the yard, a fireplace, and endless walls for your art and treasures; the newly-refinished mahogany hardwood floors glisten throughout. The kitchen is large and spectacular, with a walk-in pantry and a spacious eating area that opens to the stone patio and yard. The dining room flows wonderfully into the family room, again with huge windows, captivating views, and a fireplace. If you desire a first floor primary suite, your architect can likely envision creating one here, where other main floor rooms include a spacious office, a potential 5th bedroom with a powder room nearby, plus an enclosed porch, a second foyer and a full bathroom. Upstairs, the existing Primary Suite has a spacious bath with tub and a shower, plus two closets and access to the adjoining attic. There is another bedroom suite with tub and shower, plus two generous bedrooms which share a hall bath. The second floor also has a well-apportioned laundry room. The basement is large and un-finished, highlighted by a deeper-pour section that includes a 24' x 40' finished room (under the three-car garage). That room is currently being used for storage and will not be shown on first showings. There are two staircases from the basement to the second floor, a first-floor mudroom, and an attached 3-car garage. The yard is wooded, secluded and magical, beginning with a labyrinth in the southeast corner of the yard. A walled, stone patio is off the kitchen eating area and there is a kidney-shaped swimming pool that has not been used in recent years. The property is being sold in an estate, to be conveyed "as is"; garden statuary is excluded. Come envision your life in this unique home and enchanting setting!
