Welcome to 328 Shoreline Court. Set on just over an acre of pristine grounds with mature foliage and beach rights, this remarkable contemporary home offers five bedrooms, eight full and three partial baths in approximately 12,607 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space. The elegant entry opens to a dramatic two-story foyer, where a curved glass-and-metal staircase doubles as an art piece. The curve is matched on the other side of the staircase, with a convex wall in the family room that has been ingeniously fashioned into a striking yet functional focal point. Just across is one of the home's three inspired fireplaces. The formal dining room balances sleek lines and contemporary finishes against a pastoral view enjoyed through a wall of picture windows. This is an ongoing theme, with vast windows and sliding glass doors strategically placed throughout the home to bring the outdoors in. The formal living room is a spectacular glass-enclosed space featuring another modern fireplace and views of leafy trees and sprawling grounds. Outfitted for the finest chef, the extraordinary gourmet kitchen boasts a full suite of high-end amenities including dual Sub-Zero refrigerators and Bosch dishwashers, a Thermador double oven, a Gaggenau six-burner range, and a Miele built-in coffee maker. Design innovation is as evident as the gourmet fulfillment here, with multiple eating surfaces curving throughout the space, surrounding an enormous center prep island. The adjacent breakfast room adds a casual dining spot in which to enjoy a meal amongst family and friends. This space is finished with a room-sized walk-in pantry. Ascend by elevator to the top level, where the astounding primary suite occupies an entire wing. Features include a boutique-style dressing room and closet plus an additional large walk-in closet, his-and-her bathroom suites, and a private office. Floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding glass doors on three sides make you feel like you're in the treetops, while more serenity awaits on the huge, lake-facing private deck. This floor also includes four en-suite bedrooms, multiple sitting rooms, extensive storage, and one of the home's two laundry rooms. The lower level is an entertainer's dream with a massive recreation room and home gym plus two additional rooms that can flex to meet your needs, as well as a walkout patio and storage. Out back, the large pool, vast grassy lawn, and lush foliage add to the perfect family retreat. Stroll down to the lakefront via your private access walkway or enjoy an outing in downtown Glencoe, less than a mile away.
