About this home
Tucked away on a serene cul-de-sac just steps from downtown Winnetka and Lake Michigan, this striking contemporary residence offers refined living in one of East Winnetka's most coveted locations. Designed by Gary Lee Partners and award-winning principal architect Sharlene Young, the home is a masterful expression of modern elegance, where innovative materials and meticulous craftsmanship create a seamless blend of form and function across 4,800 square feet. Bathed in natural light, the open-concept main level is perfect for both relaxed family living and sophisticated entertaining. Expansive front and rear decks enhance the effortless indoor-outdoor flow. At the heart of the home, a show-stopping Italian-designed kitchen features Poliform cabinetry, Sub-Zero and Gaggenau appliances, stainless steel accents, and a stunning Calacatta Gold marble waterfall peninsula-ideal for everything from casual breakfasts to fireside evening gatherings. A floating, encased two-story white oak staircase-framed by a dramatic window wall-leads to a luxurious primary suite, where extra-wide panoramic windows provide serene views. Dual walk-in closets and a spa-inspired bath with an infinity soaking tub, double rainfall showers, custom vanities, and cove lighting controlled by Lutron technology complete the retreat. The second level also includes two spacious bedrooms, each with its own full bath, and abundant closet and storage space. The finished lower level continues the home's thoughtful design and high-end finishes, offering a large family room and two additional bedrooms with a shared full bath-ideal for guests or multigenerational living. Professionally landscaped with a tranquil, zen-inspired garden, this home also features a commercial-grade foundation and roof, two independent HVAC systems, and a garage with lofted storage. Recent updates include a new A/C unit, both furnaces and humidifiers and the rear deck replaced with a composite deck with built-in lighting. Live beautifully just steps from the lake and all that Winnetka has to offer.
