Property Description
Privately nestled on a beautifully landscaped half-acre in East Glencoe just steps from the lake, this striking contemporary home designed by renowned architect Tony Grunsfeld seamlessly blends architectural pedigree with modern sophistication. Elegantly reimagined with timeless upgrades, the home's airy, open-concept layout embraces natural light and the surrounding landscape through walls of glass and lofty ceiling heights. The backyard is an entertainer's dream, featuring a resort-inspired pool, hot tub, and an expansive patio with a fireplace designed for unforgettable summer gatherings under the stars. Inside, understated elegance defines the interiors, where clean lines and soft organic tones create an atmosphere of effortless calm. The main level is anchored by a dramatic sunken living room with a sleek linear fireplace and open sightlines to the stunning chef's kitchen complete with a statement marble island, full-height slab backsplash, custom cabinetry, and premium stainless appliances. The kitchen flows into a sun-drenched family room and casual dining area wrapped in French doors and floor-to-ceiling windows that invite the outdoors in. An elegant formal dining room and a separate wing with a full bath, powder room, laundry room, and oversized office provides an ideal alternative for a first-floor primary suite. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite serves as a true retreat with vaulted ceilings, skylights, and a spa-like marble bath featuring a soaking tub and double vanities. Step outside to the newly finished Trex deck and enjoy tranquil lake breezes and peaceful treetop views. Three additional bedrooms and accompanying baths offer generous space and tons of natural light. The finished lower level offers a flexible layout with a spacious recreation room, home gym, and abundant storage. An attached, heated three-car garage with a full wall of custom built-ins connects to a thoughtfully designed mudroom for everyday convenience. Sophisticated and private, this one-of-a-kind property captures the essence of elevated North Shore living in a serene, sought-after location.
