This iconic Frank Lloyd Wright-designed home recently featured in numerous prestigious publications and voted by Curbed Chicago as one of their favorite interiors of 2020, is a masterpiece of mid-century modern architecture with modern amenities. A true work of art, the home boasts Wright's signature design elements - clean lines, open spaces, and timeless craftsmanship - while blending seamlessly with modern updates. A 2020 renovation elevated the kitchen and bathrooms, enhancing this home with today's best finishes and conveniences. Large windows flood the large living room and eating areas with natural light, offering serene views of the beautifully landscaped yard and creating a perfect atmosphere for both relaxation and entertaining. The updated kitchen caters to both functionality and style, while a cozy den on the east side of the home provides a private retreat for work or unwinding. Doors in several rooms on the main level open to a spacious outdoor deck, seamlessly connecting the indoor and outdoor spaces - ideal for dining al fresco or enjoying the lush surroundings. Upstairs, a floating staircase leads to the second floor, where the lovely primary suite awaits. Featuring a private fireplace and access to a second level deck, this suite serves as an oasis. Three additional bedrooms and two more full baths complete the upper level. Outside, the nearly 2-acre property offers a spectacular, professionally landscaped yard - a true extension of the home's natural beauty. Located just a block from Lake Michigan and a short stroll to downtown East Lake Forest, this exceptional residence offers unparalleled access to local amenities, top-tier schools, and the best of suburban living.
