Enjoy the glorious sunrise over the lake each morning from the comforts of your own home! This captivating home is a year round getaway. Pass the summer and Fall days on your own large sandy beach and patios doing things you love, whether it's being with friends and family relaxing with a good book, swimming or just being at peace. Spend Winter evenings around the built-in fire pit while overlooking breathtaking lake views. This luxurious home, situated in one of the most prestigious locations, is truly a dream house. This once in a lifetime home rarely comes on the market. The home was rebuilt in 2016 with a team of architects and designers who worked closely with the owners. The state of the art Elan system for lighting, cameras, climate, media and shades makes living here easy. The rebuilding included a new stone exterior, as well as all new plumbing, electrical, water heaters, HVAC system and radiant floor heating. There are also handsome walnut hardwood floors throughout the home. The wonderful great room is washed in warm colors that compliment the lake, welcomes you with breathtaking views of the lake at every turn. The stunning kitchen has Gaggenau ovens and Wolf cooktop, two Sub Zero refrigerators, and custom pantry cabinet. The large breakfast room with comfortable seating, fireplace and custom tiles also overlooks the lake. The dining room includes a bar with two Sub Zero refrigerator drawers, an ice maker and a custom cabinet with a pull down to conceal liquor storage. There are two incredible master suites in the home. The main floor master suite has a private sitting room and full bathroom. The second floor has four bedrooms each with their own private bathroom and all with Lutron controlled shades. The second floor master bedroom has vaulted ceilings with a balcony overlooking the lake. The master bath has two water closets, heated towel rack, spacious shower with multiple shower heads, custom linen cabinet and a TV built in to the mirror. The master closet has custom cabinetry and an island with built in drawers. The second floor also has a laundry room with custom cabinets, stunning tile floor and built in ironing board. The third floor has two built in desk areas and center living area with tv, perfect for office or computer room. The basement has a multi-room exercise/gym space, living area with fireplace, full bath with steam shower and heated towel rack. There is also a 2500 bottle wine cellar, temperature controlled with custom glass and iron doors. The garage has heated floor, custom built in cabinets with doors and rack wall system and vacuum and opens to mud room with custom cabinetry and powder room. The exterior of the house blends into the interior. The stone loggia in the back has motorized screens for comfortable enjoyment for all seasons. The professional landscaping by the Scott Byron group is breathtaking. It is designed to enhance the elegance in the front of the house and to merge the backyard into the most inviting beach front with easy access to the beach. There are tiered stone walls and patios on the bluff with two gentle staircases to the wide 100 feet of sandy beach (regardless of tides). Enjoy a fire pit with gas starter and glass rock. The home has an exterior lighting system which makes the house beautiful day or night. There are exterior cameras and a DoorBird camera on the front door. This home has it all-it brings the outdoors inside. It is totally private, yet it is walking distance to shops, parks, restaurants and Starbucks! It is the perfect distance to the city as well as to the Botanic Gardens and Ravinia. Moreover, it's located in the award winning New Trier Township school system.
