This sophisticated contemporary home, located on a private street with stunning wooded views and seasonal lake views, offers the ultimate in understated luxury. Featuring 5 bedrooms, 5 full baths and 3 half baths, this home is appointed with high-end finishes throughout and an open floor plan ideal for entertaining. Designed by art enthusiasts and completely rehabbed down to the studs in 2010, the home showcases thoughtful design elements including an elevator, hardwood floors, custom millwork, soaring ceilings and expansive windows. The first level welcomes you with a large sun-filled foyer that opens to the formal dining room. A dramatic sunken living room with volume ceilings and a wall of windows creates a tranquil and inviting setting. The expansive chef's kitchen features integrated custom-painted wood slab cabinetry, soapstone countertops and backsplash, professional stainless-steel appliances, a spacious island and an eat-in area. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the family room with custom floor-to-ceiling built-ins and sliding doors that open to an Ipe wood deck overlooking the wooded setting and seasonal lake views. A separate caterer's kitchen leads to the mudroom with a half bath, access to a side grilling porch and entry to the heated and air-conditioned three-car garage. A formal powder room for guests completes the main level. The second level features a tranquil primary suite with a sitting room and built-ins, a large bedroom with tray ceiling and custom walk-in closets. Two luxurious primary bathrooms include custom slab cabinetry, heated natural stone floors, natural stone counters, an oversized soaking tub and spacious showers. Three additional bedrooms complete this level - one with an en-suite bath and two that share a Jack-and-Jill bath - along with a convenient second-floor laundry room. The lower level includes a home gym with steam shower, half bath, second laundry room and ample storage. A private guest suite offers a fifth bedroom, kitchenette, full bath and walk-in closet. Lush professionally landscaped front and side yards surround this meticulously maintained contemporary masterpiece, ideally located in prime east Highland Park within walking distance to town and the lake.
