North Shore Luxury: Lake Forest Tudor Estate Tour

Tour “Tudor Grandeur on Ten Private Acres,” a meticulously restored early 20th-century estate in Lake Forest where original craftsmanship and modern luxury meet across nearly 6,000 square feet of living space. Rich walnut paneling, ten-foot ceilings, and original ceiling moldings carry you through formal rooms that still feel tailored to today’s entertaining and everyday life.​

The marble foyer sets a stately first impression before revealing a series of showpiece spaces: a soaring living room with period details and fireplace, a formal dining room wrapped in leaded-glass windows and anchored by a statement hearth, and a south-facing cypress-paneled library where natural light moves across custom built-ins and frames views of the estate’s award-winning gardens. The chef’s kitchen, updated by Altounian builders, respects the home’s bones with white shaker cabinetry and granite surfaces while adding professional-grade appliances and an island that naturally becomes the gathering point. A graceful breezeway ties the kitchen and family room to the pool terrace, creating effortless indoor-outdoor circulation.​

Upstairs, four en-suite bedrooms offer privacy and scale, including a primary suite with luxe finishes and generous closets sized for true North Shore living. Above the four-car garage, a vaulted three-room suite currently curated as a wellness sanctuary with yoga studio and exercise space can easily flex into guest quarters, office compound, or creative studio.​

Outside, the ten-acre setting lives like a private resort bordered by prairie reserve: a brick-bordered pool and spa with multiple seating areas for up to thirty guests, a pergola-draped dining terrace with full stainless outdoor kitchen, and an outdoor fireplace that keeps evenings going under Midwest stars. All of this unfolds within Lake Forest—a North Shore community known for its historic estates, lakefront, Market Square, top-ranked schools, and direct rail access to downtown Chicago.
