This bright and beautifully renovated Stanley Anderson East Lake Forest home is a true gem! Situated on the first street off Sheridan Road as you enter Lake Forest, its curb appeal will immediately capture your heart. From the moment you arrive, you'll be charmed by the classic white exterior and the glossy black, arched, original front door. The current owners recently added a brand-new, heated two-plus-car garage with an epoxy floor. Inside, you'll find four levels of thoughtfully designed living space. Vintage details such as arched doorways, solid wood floors, French doors, and built-ins blend seamlessly with modern updates, including a chic white kitchen featuring soft-veined marble countertops and high-end appliances, such a Wolf range. The sunny, south-facing living room invites you to gather around the fireplace, while the vaulted ceilings in the family room create an open, inviting space. Office needs are well covered, with a dedicated workstation off the kitchen, built-in desk areas in the bedrooms, and a private studio with a full bathroom overlooking the ravines. The perfectly sized bedrooms offer great natural light, ample closet space, and neutral bathrooms, making this home truly move-in ready. The third floor provides even more flexibility with an additional bedroom, full bathroom, and office/flex space. The finished basement presents a comfortable hangout area, generous storage, and HUGE laundry room. Step outside to enjoy the large, west-facing deck overlooking a seating area, fire pit, and wooded ravine space perfect for exploring. Spanning nearly 2/3 of an acre, this property includes both an expansive grassy area and a year-round scenic ravine. The deck even features an amazing built-in sauna with windows of ravine views to be enjoyed all four seasons. Ideally located just minutes from both Lake Bluff and Lake Forest, bike to nearby beaches, downtown areas, two train stations, or even walk to the high school or local grade school. Homes offering this much space, style, and an ideal East location rarely come on the market. Welcome to one of the finest homes on the North Shore!
