Description
Nestled in East Lake Bluff on a beautiful ravine with seasonal Lake Michigan views, this exceptional home offers the rare luxury of a private beach. A dramatic two-story foyer with a curved staircase sets the tone for timeless elegance. At the front of the home, the library features a fireplace, warm wood-paneled walls, and a coffered ceiling. The living room with fireplace flows into the dining room, where expansive windows capture ravine and lake views. A well-appointed butler's pantry includes a sink, beverage refrigerator, Viking warming drawer, and generous cabinetry. The light-filled kitchen with high-end appliances including two dishwashers is ideal for daily living and entertaining. The adjoining mudroom features an additional refrigerator, sink, and storage. The two-story family room is filled with natural light and centered around a custom limestone fireplace. Two staircases and an elevator lead to the upper level, featuring three ensuite bedrooms and a luxurious Primary Suite with spa-like bath, private office, and scenic lake views. A cozy workspace and a second-floor laundry room add convenience. The back staircase leads to a heated sunroom with a resistance pool that also functions as a spa, plus a second washer and dryer. The basement, also accessible by the elevator, includes a recreation room, wet bar, exercise room, and ample storage. A three-car heated garage with dog bath completes this extraordinary property, offering elegance, comfort and close to all Lake Bluff has to offer.
