Property Description

Nestled in the sought-after Whispering Oaks neighborhood of East Lake Forest, this beautifully renovated 5 bedroom, 2.5 bath home offers over 3000 square feet of finished living space designed for modern living and timeless comfort. The main level features a seamless flow anchored by a brand new kitchen with quartz countertops, custom thin shaker cabinetry, a pull out pantry, and chef's hood, along with a cozy coffee nook for early mornings. The adjoining dining area opens to a raised patio, perfect for entertaining or quiet evenings surrounded by mature trees. A spacious living room with a wood burning fireplace and a large picture window frames stunning views of the private, fenced in half acre yard. Upstairs, four generous bedrooms easily accommodate queen or king beds, including a serene primary suite with dual vanities and a beautifully updated bath. The additional new full bath features a 72 inch white oak vanity and modern finishes throughout. The walkout lower level offers an inviting family room with a second fireplace, a private home office, a new custom dry bar with quartzite slab backsplash and beverage center, and a large laundry area with extra storage. The finished basement below adds even more versatility with a playroom, craft area, and workshop space, perfect for hobbies or recreation. Additional highlights include a new furnace and air conditioning, ample storage throughout, and a cedar closet for seasonal items. Just steps from Cherokee Elementary and minutes to downtown Lake Forest, the Metra, and Lake Michigan beaches, this home blends suburban tranquility with everyday convenience.
