    Welcome home to this beautifully maintained, light-filled Lake Forest retreat, perfectly positioned on a park-like lot. This classic two-story offers 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, walkout basement, and attached two-car garage giving you space, flexibility, and comfort. Step inside the two-story entry where hardwood floors, designer light fixtures and natural light flow effortlessly through the formal living and dining rooms, ideal for hosting holidays or everyday gatherings. The heart of the home is the inviting family room, complete with a brick fireplace, custom built-ins, and deck access overlooking the treed backyard. The eat-in kitchen is both beautiful and highly functional, featuring thoughtful upgrades throughout: custom pantry and cabinetry with pull-out shelving, appliance garage, an expanded island with a 36" cooktop, Advantium oven, tiled backsplash and abundant prep space. Cozy up in the sitting room/breakfast area to keep the cook company. An updated half bath, custom hall storage, and first-floor laundry complete the main level with ease and intention. Upstairs, you'll find four spacious bedrooms and two fully remodeled bathrooms filled with natural light from skylights. The primary suite is a true sanctuary, offering a spa-inspired bath with soaking tub, oversized tiled shower with built-in bench, generous cabinetry, and a large walk-in closet. A bonus flex room off the primary is perfect for a home office, private sitting area, or dressing room. A second staircase adds everyday convenience by leading directly down to the main floor laundry room. The finished walkout basement expands your living space beautifully, featuring an additional bedroom with walk-in closet, full bath, and cozy family room with fireplace. Storage is abundant with built-in bookcases, under the stair nook, wet bar, and a large unfinished storage/utility room. Step outside to a screened porch and enjoy the serene, tree-lined backyard with a professionally landscaped two-tier retaining wall. A sprinkler system keeps everything green and thriving, while the expanded driveway offers flexible parking for guests. All of this, tucked inside one of Louisville's most sought-after neighborhoods, known for its amenities and strong sense of community. This is a home that truly feels like a warm hug the moment you walk in.
