About This Property
A desirable location in Lake Forest's popular Meadowood
neighborhood at the end of a quiet street provides a private and
tranquil park-like setting for this once-in-lifetime property,
where acres and acres of Open Lands exist just beyond your front
door. Masterfully reimagined by local builder Crossroads/Blue Sky,
the residence has undergone a dramatic transformation to bring it
into harmony with modern-day living and entertaining. A classic
exterior of shingle and brick, flanked by stately columns, invites
you inside. Timelessly elegant, the interiors reveal refined
details and impeccable craftsmanship throughout. The effortless mix
of contemporary and traditional styles with authentic rough-hewn
materials gives the home instant warmth upon arrival. Just beyond
the spacious foyer, a beautifully conceived library is complete
with coffered ceiling, wood paneling, built-ins, and custom wood
barndoor that convey the relaxed formality that permeates
throughout the house. A naturally flowing floorplan takes you into
the formal living room, which opens to a bright sunroom overlooking
the beautiful backyard and connects to the formal dining room with
a built-in beverage center/bar, striking fireplace, and beamed
ceiling. The expanded chef's kitchen blends form and function to
perfection with custom white cabinetry, soapstone countertops, Wolf
and Sub-Zero appliances, a casual eating area, expansive island
with seating, and planning desk. A thoughtful family room addition
made it possible to create a hangout space that is as spacious as
it is sophisticated, thanks to custom built-ins and a volume
ceiling with rustic wood beams. A laundry room and mudroom located
off the attached two-car garage complete the main level. The second
floor unites all five bedrooms, including a bedroom with a stunning
en-suite bath and a unique paneled finished bonus room space off
one bedroom that can double as a playroom, craft area, training
space, studio, dressing room, finished storage, and more. The
primary bedroom suite was completely re-envisioned as part of the
home's addition to be a luxe retreat. Graced by a volume ceiling
and overlooking the backyard, the private space offers a glam
dressing room/walk-in closet and a new spa master bath featuring an
expansive shower, dual sinks, radiant heated flooring, and more -
not unlike what you would find at a fine hotel. A media
room/recreation room, exercise room, and storage reside in the
lower level, offering yet another space to relax and hangout.
Beyond the house, the fenced backyard encourages outdoor
entertaining with a large paver patio, lush lawn, firepit area,
plus lots of space for play. A truly rare find in Lake Forest!
