Exceptional River Forest home in a perfect location. Walking distance to top rated Lincoln Elementary School. This home is designed for fabulous living and entertaining inside and out.

The work included installing all new drain tile on the perimeter of basement along with new sump pump with a battery backup in place. Maybe the crown jewel of this home is the 12 x 12 wine bar and butlers pantry with elegant built-in cherry cabinetry, granite counters, and an integrated six foot tall wine refrigerator, This block offers large deep lots and plenty of mature trees and green space.
