About the Listing 4564 - 30166,99999
Set along prestigious Lake Road in east Lake Forest, just moments from the shores of Lake Michigan, this majestic custom estate blends timeless architecture with exceptional modern luxury. Custom built in 2009 with uncompromising craftsmanship, the home makes a striking first impression with its gated entrance, stately all-brick exterior, slate roof, copper gutters, limestone balusters, and elegant brick paver driveway (with snowmelt system). Beautifully landscaped grounds and a private built-in swimming pool create a serene and inviting setting. Inside, extraordinary quality and thoughtful design are evident at every turn. A dramatic two-story foyer welcomes you with a sweeping curved staircase, custom iron balustrades, and rich Brazilian mahogany floors laid in an intricate herringbone pattern-setting the tone for the refined interiors that follow. Just beyond, the formal living room showcases exquisite paneled millwork, a coffered ceiling, and a fireplace, all complemented by oversized windows and French doors that fill the space with natural light. The elegant dining room is equally impressive, featuring a statement chandelier, detailed ceiling design, and a fireplace, creating a warm yet sophisticated setting for entertaining. The rich Brazilian mahogany floors run throughout the main living spaces, complemented by soaring 10' ceilings and 8' mahogany doors. Exquisite millwork-meticulously sawn on site-adds character and refinement throughout the home, while five fireplaces provide warmth and ambiance. A paneled elevator transports to all three levels. The main level features a luxurious primary suite designed for comfort and privacy, complete with two generous walk-in closets and a spa-inspired bath with dual vanities, a round Jacuzzi tub, an oversized walk-in shower, and a convenient laundry room. At the heart of the home, the spectacular chef's kitchen is appointed with furniture-grade cabinetry, thick granite countertops, and a large center island. Premium appliances include a professional six-burner Wolf range, two Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezers, two Miele dishwashers, a 4-burner Wolf cooktop, and a stainless steel farmhouse sink overlooking the rear yard. The spacious breakfast area offers beautiful views of the bluestone terrace and landscaped backyard. The thoughtfully designed layout continues with a three-car attached garage that opens directly to a beautifully organized mudroom, ideal for managing everyday life. Just off this space is a full pool bath with exterior access, providing convenience for poolside living. Upstairs, the second level offers three spacious en-suite bedrooms. The north bedroom includes a sitting room that could easily be converted into a fifth bedroom with a Jack-and-Jill bath. This suite also connects to a massive bonus room with fireplace above the garage, along with an adjacent room already plumbed for a second laundry room. At the center of the upper level, a private balcony provides a peaceful retreat-perfect for enjoying a summer read or relaxing in the sun. The finished basement level features 9'6" ceilings and offers exceptional living and entertaining space. Highlights include a wonderful recreation room with two-sided fireplace, theater, exercise room, and a luxurious spa bath with sauna. A full second kitchen, a deluxe wine cellar and a large laundry room with two washers and two dryers complete the lower level. Comfort and efficiency are enhanced by five HVAC systems, a security system, radiant heated floors in the garage, kitchen, and basement, Lutron Homeworks low-voltage lighting system, Lutron shade automation, and the protection of a 20KW whole-house backup generator. Designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living, this remarkable estate combines classic elegance, superior craftsmanship, and resort-style amenities. A rare opportunity to experience refined living in one of Lake Forest's most coveted North Shore locations.
