Property Description
Tucked away in the sought-after H.O. Stone neighborhood of Lake Forest, this mid-century gem has been thoughtfully updated and maintained, both inside and out. Among its recent enhancements is a sweeping 700-square-foot patio in the expansive, private backyard that's perfect for grilling, entertaining or simply relaxing. The split-level design provides effortless flow for living and entertaining, beginning with the light-filled living room and continuing to the large dining room overlooking the backyard. The adjacent eat-in kitchen offers more picturesque views, plus ample cabinetry and newer stainless steel appliances. The family room, anchored by a stone fireplace, provides a comfortable retreat for gathering with sliding glass doors that open directly to the patio. Upstairs, three well-appointed family bedrooms, each with updated custom closet systems, share a skylit bathroom with double sink vanity. The primary suite, a true sanctuary, features dual closets and an ensuite bath with a glass-enclosed shower and tranquil backyard views. The lower level has been completely transformed with new flooring, lighting, and windows that flood the space with natural light. The fully renovated basement now offers multiple flex zones, including a gym, recreation/game room, and a dedicated laundry and storage area. An extensive list of upgrades enhance the home's appeal. Refinished hardwood floors and updated mechanicals complement newer appliances inside. A fresh exterior repaint and new landscaping create a welcoming first impression. In the backyard, the new patio, fire pit, expansive lawn and vegetable garden boxes create a private outdoor oasis, all shrouded by mature trees. There's even an invisible fence in the front yard and an extended driveway with an in-ground basketball hoop for additional play. With so many updates already made for you, this Lake Forest treasure invites you to simply move in and start living!
