Combining architectural pedigree, extraordinary privacy, and an idyllic natural setting, this is a truly distinctive property in Highland Park. Designed by architects Zbigniew and Krystyna Cianciara as their own personal residence, this architectural masterpiece features soaring wood-beam ceilings, exposed brick, and dramatic walls of glass that flood the entire home with natural light while seamlessly merging indoor living with nature. Ceiling heights reach 9.5 feet throughout and ascend to a commanding 20 feet in the central living volume, anchored by an imposing brick hearth column that extends through both levels to serve as a backdrop for fireplaces on the main and lower floors. Completing this remarkable design, five large balconies provide panoramic views over the pond, fountain, and park-like grounds. The flexible layout offers more than 4,600 square feet of interior living quarters, including four bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. A finished walk-out English basement features full-size windows and a secondary kitchen-ideal for guests or multigenerational living. Including outdoor living areas and ancillary spaces, the total footprint approaches 6,700 square feet. A dedicated home office with its own independent entrance caters perfectly to remote work or professional use, with potential as a first-floor suite. A covered walkway connects the garage to the residence, flowing through a versatile mudroom equipped with pantry storage and an integrated workspace. Flowing directly from the kitchen, the expansive cedar deck extends the home's lifestyle and entertaining options, featuring a built-in bar, a hard-plumbed, integrated gas fire pit, and generous built-in seating, while a separate wood-burning fire pit on the grounds below offers an additional lakeside gathering spot. Together, these curated spaces create a serene sanctuary where architecture and nature exist in harmony. Comprising two legal parcels in coveted Sherwood Forest, the property offers a rare combination of acreage and privacy while remaining just minutes from shopping, dining, parks, and commuter access. Located within the highly regarded District 113, residents choose between Highland Park High School and Deerfield High School-moments from downtown Highland Park, Lake Michigan beaches, Ravinia Festival, the Chicago Botanic Garden, and the Metra.
