First time on the market in 32 years. Designed and custom-crafted by renowned builder Gene Martin, this beautifully updated and meticulously maintained Georgian Revival masterpiece stands as a testament to timeless quality. With its lime-washed brick facade, elegant wraparound drive, and manicured approach, the 5,948-square-foot residence makes a grand first impression that only deepens upon entry. Inside, light and symmetry define a gracious floor plan composed for both elegant entertaining and effortless daily living. A soaring two-story foyer sets the stage, flanked by formal living and dining rooms adorned with intricate millwork, dentil molding, coffered ceilings, and arched niches-hallmarks of Gene Martin's craftsmanship. A series of oversized windows and French doors bathe the main living spaces in natural light and frame tranquil views of the backyard. The family room, filled with natural light from bay windows and French doors, opens to an expansive Trex composite deck overlooking serene, tree-studded views-an ideal setting for gathering and relaxation. These central living spaces connect seamlessly to the kitchen and butler's pantry, reimagined by Eric Goebeler with entertaining in mind. Conceived as an ode to modern-day elegance, the kitchen features custom-made Amish cabinetry, a large center island, and an inviting breakfast area overlooking the backyard. The main level also offers a classic wood-paneled office with fireplace, lovely powder bath, a well-appointed mudroom, and a flexible bedroom that doubles as a guest suite or second office with a full bath. Upstairs, the primary suite occupies its own wing with a fireplace, spacious walk-in closet, and a redesigned spa bath featuring dual vanities, a freestanding soaking tub, and a walk-in shower. Three additional bedrooms-one ensuite and two sharing a Jack-and-Jill bath-are spacious and beautifully appointed, complemented by a large sun-filled laundry room and walk-in linen closet. An unfinished, walk-up third level offers vaulted ceiling, windows, and extensive potential for future living space. An English-style basement brings light from the outside while providing additional living space with a recreation room, craft room, second kitchen, full bath and a flex room that could be converted to a guest room or nanny suite. A three-car attached garage, abundant unfinished storage, generator, and a new roof (2023) complete this remarkable offering. A timeless Lake Forest residence offering exceptional craftsmanship, scale, and livability.
