An extraordinary estate of impressive scale and elegance! The current owners have meticulously upgraded every facet of this remarkable manor. The entry doors are framed by exquisite stonework crafted by master masons. Step into the two-story foyer, where your gaze is immediately drawn to the stunning woodwork of the stair railings and balustrades accentuating the soaring staircase. To the right, a grand formal dining room. To the left, a welcoming family room/parlor opens to a beautiful bluestone patio. The expansive living room, featuring 10-foot coffered ceilings, is ideal for hosting large gatherings. Sunlight streams through striking windows on both the north and south walls, illuminating this gracious space. The library, finished in rich wood paneling, offers a serene retreat for avid readers. Hardwood floors, crown, and cove moldings adorn all formal rooms on the main level. The state-of-the-art kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with premium appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, additional Sub-Zero drawers, Bosch induction cooktop, and JennAir built-in microwave/convection oven combo. Two half baths complete the first floor, including a formal powder room off the entry. Upstairs, discover five generously sized rooms suitable for bedrooms or offices, along with four full baths. The primary suite is a true sanctuary, featuring architectural ceiling details, pastoral views, and an expansive walk-in closet with custom built-ins. A cozy sitting area adds warmth to the space. The luxurious bath boasts marble countertops, a whirlpool soaking tub, walk-in shower, and designer fixtures. (Window treatments in the primary suite are excluded.) Each family bedroom offers bathroom access, walk-in closets, and skylights. A convenient laundry room with new LG washer and dryer is located on this level. Additional space above the great hall allows for future expansion if desired. The lower level is designed for entertainment, featuring a media room with theater seating and a large screen for movies or gaming. Unfinished areas provide abundant storage and house updated mechanicals, all replaced within the last five years. A whole-house Generac generator ensures peace of mind. Set on 1.38 picturesque acres, the property includes a 22' x 16' screened porch perfect for summer gatherings. A stunning Italian limestone pergola with ornamental wrought iron and a domed ceiling creates an unforgettable architectural centerpiece-ideal for outdoor weddings. Professional landscaping enhancements include 22 Arborvitae trees along the privacy fence and additional plantings near the pergola and patio. There is ample room for an in-ground pool and tennis courts, making this an exceptional family retreat. Despite its serene setting, the estate is conveniently close to commuter trains, Mariano's, Heinen's, dining, and major highways. No homeowner's association restrictions apply. A new Brava composite shake roof will be installed within 60 days. The current owner requests the right of first refusal for the limestone pergola. Proof of funds or pre-approval letter required prior to viewing. Agent accompanied. Buyer responsible for Lake Forest transfer tax ($4 per thousand).
