The family room is the heart of the home with coffered ceilings, built-in bookcases, a brick fireplace with gas logs, wet bar, and French doors that lead to the deckperfect for indoor-outdoor entertaining.
The kitchen is large, functional, and ready for your vision, featuring oak cabinetry, hardwood floors, pantry storage, electric range, dishwasher, microwave and a separate Jenn-Air cooktop with griddle in the center island with downdraft ventilation. Another entry leads directly to the attached 2½-car rear-entry garage with an insulated door, making grocery runs and daily life easy. Just off the kitchen, the dining area is flooded with light thanks to doors on two sides leading outdoors and an abundance of windows to the rear.

This home has been lovingly maintained, is solid and very livable, but hasn’t been fully modernized. That’s the opportunity. Whether you’re a handy buyer who wants to update over time while living comfortably, or an investor ready to bring in modern finishes and unlock serious upside, the bones, layout, and location make this one a smart move.
Lake Forest. One-owner. Tons of space. Endless potential.
