Welcome to 242 Buckminster, perfectly set among the majestic canopy of trees. The curb appeal will charm you while the grounds will enchant you! The secret of this property? The stunning private views of a park-like setting overlooking the pond! An abundance of nature (deer, bunnies, fish...oh my!) and the change of seasons are on full display with amazing year-round views. Buckminster is located on a premium, interior, corner lot featuring lush professional landscaping and private deck. The stone walkways surrounding the home set the perfect stage for this 2-story entry, 4 bed / 2.5 bath home. The living room and dining room show off with lovely features: a bay window, fantastic millwork, tons of natural light and hardwood floors. The family room (which opens to the kitchen!) boasts a brick fireplace and sliders out to the deck. The powder room has been updated with a timeless vanity, en-pointe wallpaper and matching sconces. In the meticulous white eat-in kitchen you will find great working space with a double oven and cooktop. The attached 2-car garage and mudroom make for easy living here. Upstairs you will find all 4 generous-size bedrooms, 2 full baths, a walk-in closet and wonderful views. You are in luck, the classic bathrooms were redone a few years ago! The basement offers plenty of room for rec space and additional storage. Additional features include multiple cedar closets, builtin storage shelving and a security system. The expansive deck is the best place to end the day overlooking the firepit, mature landscape and stunning pond. Tangley Oaks features several paved walking paths, tennis courts, a pavilion, stocked ponds and an abundance of nature and wildlife. Enjoy top-rated Lake Bluff Elementary/Middle Schools and Lake Forest High School, Fitness Center, pool, golf course, Metra station and Sunrise Beach. Everything is within close distance. Lake Bluff has a wonderful downtown area with several restaurants, coffee shops, post office, unique boutiques, salons, incredible 4th of July Parade and the Village Green for summer concerts. Enjoy the North Shore life, Lake Bluff-style!
