Situated on a beautifully landscaped corner lot of nearly half an acre, this inviting ranch offers generous living space both inside and out. The home features 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a finished basement, and a flexible, easy-flowing layout. The light-filled main level features mostly hardwood floors, with the living room opening to the kitchen and large center island. A spacious family room addition offers vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, and views of the private, fenced backyard surrounded by mature trees. The primary suite is tucked away in its own addition and features vaulted ceilings, a walk-in closet, and a private bath with a separate soaking tub. Two additional bedrooms, a full bath, powder room, and mudroom complete the main level. The finished basement provides even more space with a recreation room, additional Bonus room, full bath, and plenty of storage. Outside, the property offers an attached 2-car garage plus an additional detached 2-car garage-ideal for extra vehicles, storage, or workshop space. Located in the highly regarded Lake Bluff School District and Lake Forest High School District, with convenient access to everything Lake Bluff has to offer.
