Privacy is a coveted luxury! This premier East Lake Forest location, one half block from the beach, offers unparalleled privacy, with deep ravines on two boundaries providing a "privacy moat". The estate has been gutted and updated with $2,000,000 of renovations and improvements. This is one of Lake Forest's most significant properties with five totally private acres that can be divided to provide a fabulous compound. The home offers an open and flexible floor plan, perfect for entertaining intimate events or meetings, but grand enough to accommodate more than 200 guests. The main floor features an expansive family room with kitchenette. Floor to ceiling windows and doors bathe the rooms in natural light. The second floor currently includes 7 ensuite bedrooms, with many built-ins. The Primary Suite includes a fireplace, custom built-ins and two huge separate walk-in closets and dressing rooms. There are 2 ensuite dedicated home-school and office spaces, converted from original bedrooms, of which one is large enough to become a media room. The third office, in the turret, has a custom desk and shelves and overlooks the beautiful gardens gracing the front of the home. A huge multi-use recreation room has a special floating floor, ideal for dance or aerobics, a playroom or both! A pool, tennis court, firepit, a recently renovated two room cottage, lovely lush gardens, and acres of space for sports and exercise add to the outdoor amenities. Some indoor amenities include a wine cellar, wet bar, hot tub, exercise room, and dry and wet saunas. All this in one magical spot.
