Property Description

Nestled within the quiet enclave of Academy Woods, this residence offers a sophisticated blend of refined architecture and an intimate connection to the surrounding landscape. This home begins with a grand two-story foyer, where red oak hardwood floors and an abundance of natural light establish an immediate sense of warmth and scale. The main level is thoughtfully designed for both quiet retreats and seamless entertaining; a vaulted living room anchored by a classic fireplace serves as the home's centerpiece, while the formal dining room adds a touch of traditional elegance. The heart of the home-a recently refreshed chef's kitchen, breakfast nook, and family room-are intentionally all interconnected, creating a seamless flow of space that overlooks the meticulously landscaped grounds. The primary suite, located on the first floor for ultimate ease, is a private sanctuary featuring a beautifully updated bathroom with an expansive, modern shower and a private door to the rear yard. Practicality is handled with equal care, evidenced by the large, combined laundry and mudroom positioned just off the two-car attached garage. Upstairs, a versatile loft provides a serene space for an office or sitting area, accompanied by a spacious ensuite bedroom. An additional primary suite serves as a secondary retreat, offering an extra-large footprint with a dedicated seating area perfect for a quiet workspace. For those with a grander vision, the oversized, high-ceilinged basement stands as a vast, open canvas, waiting to be transformed into a premier lower-level destination. The exterior is a testament to privacy and curated outdoor living. The maintenance free backyard is an exceptionally secluded oasis, bordered by mature trees with no rear neighbors to interrupt the view. A custom paver patio and professional plantings create an elegant setting for outdoor dining or reflection. Beyond the property line, the lifestyle is defined by the unique beauty of Academy Woods. Residents enjoy direct access to the Middlefork Savanna's walking trails, which lead through open lands and past serene lakes and rivers to the historic Elawa Farm. While the setting feels deeply tranquil, it remains effortlessly connected, located just minutes from the Metra, major highways, and the premier shopping and dining of Lake Forest and Vernon Hills. Freshly painted and in phenomenal condition, this home is a rare find for the discerning buyer.
