About this home
Beautiful single-family home situated on charming, historic Vine Avenue in the heart of Lake Forest. This inviting home blends timeless character with a comfortable, open floor plan. A spacious foyer welcomes you in and leads to the sun-filled living room with a fireplace, enhanced by 9-foot ceilings and hardwood floors. Access from here to the welcoming screened porch and outdoor patio creates a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. Just beyond the living room, a generously sized dining room offers the perfect setting for entertaining and flows easily into the kitchen, which features stainless steel appliances, modern touches, and charming glass-front cabinets. The open, connected layout continues into a bright and cozy family room, providing additional space for everyday living and gathering. A versatile main level room can function beautifully as a private home office or a guest room and includes its own ensuite full bath. Practical features such as first-floor laundry and a mudroom, conveniently located off the back entrance and attached extra wide three-car garage, make daily living effortless. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite enjoys both east and west exposure, filling the space with natural light throughout the day. Four additional bedrooms and a full hall bath complete the second level, offering flexibility for family, guests, or work-from-home needs. The large unfinished basement provides abundant potential for future expansion, recreation space, or additional storage. Outdoors, the bluestone patio is the perfect spot for morning coffee or relaxing summer evenings. The fenced yard offers ample room for play, gardening, and entertaining. Located just moments from Market Square, the train station, top-rated schools, and the shops and restaurants of downtown Lake Forest, this home presents a wonderful opportunity to enjoy classic charm, modern comfort, and an exceptional in-town location....
