Completely transformed in 2004 by Landmark Development, this thoughtfully designed home showcases high-quality craftsmanship, luxury finishes, and convenient service features all located on a beautifully landscaped property in the heart of East Lake Forest. With over 5,900 square feet of above-grade living space, the first-floor highlights include a living room with an oversized bay window and raised coffered ceilings; a private home office; a den with french doors to a bluestone patio; a large formal dining room with bay window and fireplace; custom painted butler's pantry with Peacock cabinetry and walnut counters; a sun-filled breakfast room overlooking the backyard; and a dream kitchen that's open to the family room featuring custom built-ins and a gas fireplace. The convenient service hall from the garage provides a mud room, powder room, laundry room, service pantry, and elevator access to all floors. Upstairs, a large stair hall provides cozy nooks and custom window seats. The primary suite offers a sumptuously appointed bedroom with vaulted ceiling, hers and his closets, and bathroom with infinity soaking tub, double vanity, and separate commode. Three additional bedrooms include one with a private en-suite bath and two that access a jack-and-jill bath. The lovely yard has been professionally landscaped by Rocco Fiore Landscaping and offers superb privacy from surrounding properties. In the backyard is a Lannon stone water feature set amongst a backdrop of giant arborvitae. In the front, a crushed stone circular driveway provides ample parking and a large front lawn showcasing a specimen Austrian Pine trained to grow in the manner of an Indian trail tree. Additional features throughout the property include a heated 3-car garage with a dog shower, a generator, and heated floors in the primary bath, garage, breakfast room, and basement. Don't miss this sophisticated home in an unbeatable location just a couple of blocks from the beach and a short distance to town.
