About This Home

As of August 2021

Rare opportunity in East Lake Bluff. This home offers a first floor master and first floor laundry so one floor living if desired. Just 2 blocks to town/train and a few more to the lake the location is amazing. Wonderful, sunny exposure in the open space concept of the family room, breakfast room and kitchen with wall of South facing windows to view the lush lawn and gardens in the fenced backyard. Off the kitchen is a glorious sunroom with sliders to the brick patio. Set apart from the main living area the master(primary) bedroom offers a vaulted ceiling and lovely updated bath. The three bedrooms upstairs are all great sizes. Two of the bedrooms offer oversized closet or attic space for easy addition of full baths allowing for all upstairs bedrooms to be en suite if desired. The basement has a great recreation room with built ins and good storage space. Two car attached garage. Truly a rare find in amazing East Lake Bluff.
