This lovely, completely overhauled home in Lake Forest's quiet and highly desirable Arcady subdivision beautifully balances spacious modern living with thoughtful design.

The heart of the home is the expansive center island kitchen, which features a large eating area, granite countertops, a premium stainless steel appliance package, and a huge pantry. Nearby, a convenient mudroom and laundry area add everyday functionality, complementing a second laundry setup located upstairs. A rare and highly desirable first-floor bedroom with its own private en suite bath completes the main level. Upstairs, the second floor is as spacious as can be, hosting four impressive bedrooms. This includes two bedrooms joined by a Jack and Jill bathroom, a third bedroom with an en suite bath, and a spectacular primary suite. The primary suite serves as a true retreat, featuring a massive walk-in closet, an additional separate walk-in closet, and a luxurious bathroom equipped with an oversized shower, a separate soaking tub, and dual counters. The extensive living space continues into the finished basement, which makes excellent use of its square footage.
