Rare offering in East Lake Bluff with seasonal Lake Michigan views. This oversized corner lot, just a block from the lake, features a stately brick colonial renovated by LaDuke Associates and landscaped by Chalet Nursery. The storybook entrance leads to a spacious dining room with a custom marble fireplace and French doors to the patio. The light-filled living room and primary suite offer lake views. All bedrooms are thoughtfully en-suite. The chef's kitchen includes high-end appliances, black soapstone counters, Italian glass lighting, and a cozy window seat. The deep-pour basement has a full bath and family room for extra living space, and the backyard oasis includes a fenced garden, three-tiered fountain, apple trees, outdoor shower, fire pit, and saltwater hot tub. With every detail thoughtfully crafted, this home is a rare gem in East Lake Bluff.
