First time on the market, this unique and stunning one-owner Mid-Century Modern home embodies a rare and special vibe, one that celebrates light and space in ways that will send your senses soaring. With 5 bedrooms, and 4 full, and 1 half baths, every angle excites and intrigues. Spacious rooms accommodate art and entertaining; newly-refinished mahogany hardwood floors glisten throughout. A huge unfinished basement also has a deep-pour section, plus a finished room under the 3-car garage, provides additional living space. In the heart of everything you love about East Lake Forest, convenient to town, the Lake, Sheridan Elementary School and Lake Forest High School, the setting for this soaring, custom-built home is visionary. The one-acre property is wooded, secluded and magical, with a labyrinth in the southeast corner of the yard and a ravine garden path meandering along the northern side. A walled, stone patio is off the kitchen eating area and there is a kidney-shaped swimming pool that has not been used in recent years. The property is being sold in an estate, to be conveyed "as is"; garden statuary is excluded. Come envision your life in this unique home and enchanting setting!
