Step into history reimagined. This beautifully renovated and expanded residence in the heart of the historic Fort Sheridan subdivision seamlessly blends timeless charm with modern amenities. Once a duplex home for lieutenant colonels, this distinguished property has been thoughtfully transformed into a spacious single-family home that honors its past while embracing the needs of today's lifestyle. From its original architectural details to the numerous updates throughout, every element has been curated to preserve the character and integrity of the home. The expansion offers generous living spaces, including the spectacular Great Room with seasonal views of Lake Michigan and the stunning adjacent ravine. The kitchen has been updated with beautiful custom cabinetry, top of the line appliances, spacious eating area and breakfast bar. A two story light filled sunroom looks out to the yard and ravine, perfect for enjoying your morning coffee. A nearby staircase leads to a private loft area, currently used as an office, that opens out to a private deck and charming screened gazebo. The seamless indoor-outdoor flow is perfect for entertaining or everyday living. Upstairs you will find the large, private primary suite with dressing room/closet and spa bath. There is also the added bonus of a 2nd floor laundry room. Three additional bedrooms, full bath and a great office/den space complete the 2nd level. An extra deep basement was created with the addition and provides the perfect recreation space. Two additional bedrooms and two full baths, as well as another laundry space and ample storage space are located here as well. Outside, enjoy the Lake breezes from one of 3 decks, the cozy patio, or the delightful front porches. Conveniently located between Lake Forest and Highland Park, with easy access to Metra and close proximity to shops and restaurants. Surrounded by preserved open lands, walking trails, and lakefront access, this one-of-a-kind home is more than just a residence-it's a rare piece of history, thoughtfully brought into the present day. Truly, the best of Fort Sheridan awaits you here. Conveniently located between Lake Forest and Highland Park, with easy access to Metra and close proximity to shops and restaurants.
