Commanding the shoreline with quiet iconic grandeur, this is the most exceptionally renovated North Shore lakefront home to ever be offered where timeless beauty meets modern SMART mastery. Exquisitely preserving the exterior elegance of this Robert Starrett home, the notable architect behind the Empire State Building, Plaza Hotel, and Lincoln Center to tout, not one detail was overlooked during this extensive labor of love, 2-year preservation & rebuilding process executed by a world-class design team collaboration. Every element has been elevated to a five star standard; starting outside with the re-vision of complete new grounds by Mariani with natural privacy walls of Arborvitae, a glass enclosed patio, fire pit terrace on the edge of the bluff, to the fully gutted whimsical boathouse inspired by a boutique hotel in St. Bart's that steps down directly to a sandy private 115 ft. beach. The all new interiors are nothing but jaw-dropping as the new open floor plan maximizes natural light & architectural details with incredible panoramic lake vistas from every new window. Mick de Giulio takes this minimalist kitchen to an elevated level of chic by discreetly concealing all appliances & allowing the floor-to-ceiling sliding door to open to your very own, new version of a dining room on one of the many heated bluestone patios. The lake is the focal point of this 6-bed home with warm, modern light filling this historic structure. The main floor's living, dining, and family room are thoughtfully positioned to capture panoramic views of the water & lush grounds. Serene primary suite is a 5-star hotel experience with a private terrace, his & her bathrooms, and a custom-designed wardrobe room that evokes the ambiance of a high-end boutique. All en-suite baths are John Pawson by Cocoon. Brand new 3rd floor lives as the guest suite w/2 beds that share a common space outfitted with a luxe kitchenette and pocket laundry room. A sense of serenity naturally extends to the lower level where a wellness sanctuary awaits with a sauna, steam shower, exercise & massage room. Also, a cozy custom theater, professional-grade catering kitchen, wine cellar, laundry & 2 baths. The finest level of finishes & products possible in today's world: new Swiss Oknoplast windows & glass doors throughout, DeVinci slate composite roof, 4 new TRANE heating & cooling high efficiency systems, Elan Smart Home, Visual Comfort Tech lighting system, WOLF, Holly Hunt, and Lisa Adams of LA Closets. And best yet, a quick 10-minute walk to luxe shopping at the newly refurbished Plaza De Lago, new home to Hermes, Rag & Bone, Jenni Kayne & Space 519. This is the most unique North Shore lakefront opportunity, as this best in classic architectural elegance combined with cutting edge smart tech technology making this a 2025 turn key perfection.. it's time to travel freely without ever a worry and come home to your Midwest protected luxury home!
