About This Home
As of November 2024Welcome to your dream home, perfectly situated in a coveted neighborhood of Lake Forest. Nestled on a .91-acre lot in the prestigious King Muir neighborhood, part of the historic Cudahy Estate, this elegant brick ranch has been masterfully reimagined by architect Edward Deegan for modern living. This stunning 4+1 bedroom, 4.1 bathroom property has an incredible layout, and has been meticulously well maintained. The current owners have completed this reimagining and the list of improvements is expansive. Every feature has been thoughtfully chosen to provide worry free low maintenance enjoyment of the home. Upon crossing the large blue stone front porch with porch swing, you will be struck by the spacious and inviting main level, which features vaulted ceilings and ample room perfect for hosting guests or spending time with family. The living room is warm and inviting with reclaimed wood paneled vaulted ceilings, oversized glass windows, bountiful natural light, custom doors to access the backyard patio, and large brick fireplace perfect for those chilly nights. The kitchen is exquisite, featuring a custom quartzite island with walnut inlay and second gas fireplace. The island is centered around a striking cobalt La Cornue range & hood including ample cabinet and pantry space, perfect for chefs at any level. Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining area is bathed in natural light and allows access to the backyard patio making entertaining a breeze. Continuing through the living spaces of this ranch home are 2 separate office spaces with custom wall coverings & drapes in one and a custom fireplace in the other. The spacious first-floor laundry and mudroom, between the kitchen and heated epoxy treated garage, features multiple storage closets, custom cubbies, dutch door, access to both front and back yards, adding to the home's practicality. Don't miss the luxurious dog bath worthy of the highest pedigree pup... although lovable mutts are just as welcome! A stunning powder room with custom wall covers and organized storage closet completes the foyer. The primary suite is a luxurious retreat away from the living area yet still has the stunning views of the yard through the expansive bay window seat, allowing natural light to bathe the room throughout the day. Custom California Closet wall wardrobe, additional organized walk-in closet, luxurious en-suite bathroom that features a new shower with a rainfall showerhead, mist, and LED lights, water closet, soaking tub, heated marble floors, and split double vanities complete the space. The 3 additional bedrooms each have custom window treatments, organized closets, with one bedroom en-suite while the other two share the stunning hall bathroom. Throughout the home, you'll find high-end finishes such as new 7" wide plank oak wood floors, marble bathrooms, custom vanities, solid panel doors, upgraded hardware, and custom light fixtures. For security and comfort, the property is equipped with a Keyth Home Security System, a tankless hot water heater, dual zone system for optimal climate control, heated two-car garage with an epoxy floor, along with a whole-house generator, ensuring peace of mind in every season. The most recent upgrades include a BRAND NEW finished basement, now boasting a spacious home movie theater, additional kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, laundry room, and a home gym. Exterior enhancements include permanent trim lighting, complete irrigation system & stunning updated perennial landscaping. This home offers the new buyers endless possibilities with its newly finished basement and updated features, making it an ideal retreat to move in and enjoy. Close to Downtown Lake Forest, restaurants, shopping, and a variety of transportation, this home is both close to everything and tucked away. 292 Sussex is truly a home like no other... it is not to be missed!
