About This Home

As of January 2019

This picture perfect home has been extensively renovated and upgraded inside and out. The professionally landscaped setting beautifully complements the brick and cedar home that is situated next to a generously sized village parkway. Located in the popular West Terrace neighborhood in Lake Bluff, the home is in close proximity to schools, rec center, golf course, pool, town, and train. The impressive exterior detailing includes copper gutters and custom shutters, brick paver driveway, spacious back patio, playhouse, storage shed, and sprinkler system. The light-filled home has been meticulously improved and just keeps getting better. The difference is in the details, including a white kitchen with new quartz countertops and built-in table, remodeled baths with Kohler fixtures, newer windows, premium millwork and doors, hardwood flooring throughout, and more. The floor plan is designed for easy living and entertaining, plus there is a great rec room in the basement. Move in and enjoy!
