Tucked in the heart of Lake Forest, this end-unit townhome lives like a single-family residence, offering 3 spacious bedrooms and 2.5 luxurious baths across 1,746 sq ft. Nestled in one of the city’s most sought-after neighborhoods, it’s celebrated for its top-rated schools and vibrant community feel. From the moment you step through the private gated courtyard, you’re greeted by warmth, light, and a sense of possibility. This is more than a beautifully remodeled space, it’s where comfort meets intention, and where your next chapter begins.
The expansive, custom chef’s kitchen is the true heart of the home featuring a powered center island with three ovens, sleek quartz countertops, Samsung appliances, Bosch dishwasher, and stunning solid wood custom cabinetry with custom organizers. The open-concept living area is filled with natural light, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and a cozy brick gas-fireplace that invites gatherings both big and small. Upstairs, the serene primary suite offers a peaceful escape with a walk-in closet and spa-inspired bathroom with a vanity backlit mirror, and glass shower doors, while two additional bedrooms share a beautifully updated hall bath. Step outside to a private, tree-lined patio or explore the community’s refreshed pool, spa, and scenic trails. Enjoy indoor-outdoor living with your private vinyl-fenced patio surrounded by mature trees, plus a large two-car garage, ample attic storage with pull-down access, indoor laundry, new water heater, PEX plumbing, dual-pane windows, and central AC. This turnkey home delivers ease, elegance, and everyday joy.
