Property Description
Prepare to fall in love with this stunning custom-built Nantucket-style 5-bedroom, 4.1-bath ranch, beautifully situated on a full acre in the desirable Forest Haven subdivision of Lake Forest. Meticulously built with unparalleled craftsmanship and thoughtfully designed for luxurious main-floor living, this home blends timeless charm with modern elegance. From the moment you arrive, you'll be captivated by the inviting front porch, mature trees, and exceptional curb appeal. Inside, a gracious foyer with a solid wood and glass entry door opens to a sun-drenched formal dining room that is perfect for large gatherings. A private living room (or office) with wood French doors offers direct access to the patio, ideal for quiet relaxation. The chef's kitchen is a dream, featuring custom slab wood cabinetry, granite countertops, designer tile backsplash, professional-grade stainless steel appliances, a large center island with seating, and a spacious eat-in area with sliding doors to the backyard. A fully outfitted wet bar includes built-in cabinetry, granite counters, integrated double-drawer refrigeration, a beverage refrigerator and a built-in coffee maker. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the expansive family room, where a vaulted ceiling, stunning stone fireplace, and a wall of windows create a warm and inviting atmosphere. A mudroom and large laundry room with ample storage are conveniently located off the attached 3-car garage. The first-floor primary suite is a true retreat, boasting a vaulted ceiling, private patio access, and two generous walk-in closets. The spa-like marble bath is pure luxury, with radiant heated floors, dual custom vanities, granite counters, a soaking tub, an oversized shower with body sprays, a heated towel bar and a private commode room. Three additional spacious bedrooms on the main level each offer walk-in closets; two share a Jack-and-Jill bath, while the third enjoys an en-suite bath with access to patio. Upstairs, a massive bonus room provides incredible versatility - could be used as a home gym, media room or kids' hangout space. It also includes a sitting area, full bath and an additional guest bedroom. The unfinished lower level offers endless potential for additional living space and has great storage. Outdoor entertain with ease across multiple patio areas and the expansive, professionally landscaped yard with wooded backdrop - your own private sanctuary! This one-of-a-kind property is the perfect blend of luxury, function, and style.
