Tucked back at the end of a quiet street in East Lake Bluff, this light-filled vintage home was designed by iconic architects Probst & Probst to take full advantage of the incredible ravine landscape that changes with the seasons. This .54 acre private and tranquil setting is rarely found close to the lake, parks, schools, town, and train. The home creates an unmatched synergy with nature through tall windows and screened porches on both levels. The recent improvements bring out the vintage character with newly refinished striking dark quarter sawn oak hardwood floors and freshly painted walls that highlight the built-in bookcases, fine millwork, tall ceilings, and 4 fireplaces. The highly regarded architect, Stanley Anderson, designed the south wing bedroom suite addition. The flexible floor plan has 2 en-suite bedrooms on both the 1st and 2nd floors, plus an office that could be used as 1st floor laundry/mudroom. This unique offering has not been available for almost half a century.
