1101 Havenwood Lane, Lake Forest, IL 60045

Welcome to 1101 Havenwood, located at the end of a cul-de-sac this is an architecturally stunning Post-Modern style home designed by architect Roy Binkley that exudes personality and wit and is a masterpiece of blending form, function, light, and views. Situated amidst the picturesque wooded landscape of the former Havenwood Estate, the property seamlessly combines the best of old and new, incorporating two remnant monuments from the original estate into the property layout. Stone piers leading to a former walking path, and stone entry walls with iron gates to a former bridal path leading to Ringwood Road are a testament to the property's rich history. Built in 1989, this wood cedar-clad home features a wood shingle roof and is defined by two monumental-sized round windows punctuating the front and rear facades. The southeast-facing orientation of the house allows natural light to flood the interior throughout the day. The home spans approximately 4,789 square feet above grade including two walkout lower level rooms. The first floor boasts a dramatic Living Room with a fireplace, soaring ceilings, and a wall of windows overlooking the ravine, a large formal Dining Room, a Kitchen with an island, an eating area, and a sitting room. Other highlights include a family room with built-in custom cabinetry and a guest suite with a full bathroom. The second floor features a primary suite and two large family-sized bedrooms. The lower level is equally impressive, offering a recreation room, an office with exterior access, a full bathroom, an exercise room, and plenty of storage space. Additional features include a first-floor laundry room and a three-car garage. From most rooms will you enjoy stunning year-round views of the Ringwood Road ravine, recently restored by the City of Lake Forest, and boasting beautiful native trees and flowers. Whether you are drawn to the architecturally unique design, the tranquil ravine setting, or the wonderful neighborhood in east Lake Forest that is close to South Park, and a short distance to the beach, this property has it all.
