Quality built all brick and cedar home in the sought after Lake Forest Heights subdivision. Conveniently located in central Lake Forest with easy access to train, restaurants, shopping, parks and expressways.

The very spacious updated kitchen with vaulted ceiling and skylights offers abundant cabinetry, top of the line stainless steel appliances, center island and eating area with slider to expansive brick patio with fire pit. A wet bar with beverage refrigerator and cabinetry provides a convenient connection between the kitchen and dining room.
