Pristine East Kenilworth residence just steps from vibrant Plaza del Lago and the lake. Showcasing timeless curb appeal and meticulous maintenance throughout, this gracious home truly checks every box. A grand entry with stunning dark ebony hardwood floors welcomes you and opens to the formal living room, where floor-to-ceiling windows flood the space with natural light. A private library with custom built-ins and French doors offers the perfect retreat for work or relaxation. The elegant dining room, bathed in southern light through matching floor-to-ceiling windows, is ideal for both intimate dinners and larger gatherings. The beautifully appointed Christopher Peacock kitchen features custom cabinetry, a center island, and high-end appliances, and flows seamlessly into the family room with banquet seating, built-in bookcases, and French doors leading to the expansive yard-creating an effortless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The second floor includes a luxe primary suite with walk-in closets and a spa-like bath. Bedroom two opens to a private treetop terrace, while bedroom three features a charming built-in bed; both share a newer, crisp white hall bath. A private office completes this level. The third-floor suite offers a large bedroom, extra living space, and a beautifully finished bath with Ann Sacks tile - ideal for guests or flexible living. The lower level includes a spacious recreation room, full bath, deep dug-out exercise room, wine cellar, and abundant storage. Above the charming two-car garage is the nearly impossible-to-find coach house with a full bath-perfect for a home office, au pair, or guest suite. Professionally landscaped grounds and a private patio reflect the same exceptional care found throughout this impeccable home, ideally located within the sought-after Joseph Sears and New Trier school districts.
