About this home

An extraordinary "boutique hotel" living experience, impeccably situated in the heart of Winnetka. Beyond a stately solid-iron gate adorned with gold medallion accents lies a private sanctuary just 18 miles from Chicago and less than half a mile from the sandy shores of Lake Michigan. Evoking the glamour and grandeur of a Roaring Twenties estate, this remarkable residence channels the elegance of The Great Gatsby era with five-star refinement at every turn. A dramatic foyer welcomes you with gleaming marble floors and a sweeping bridal staircase crowned by intricate wrought-iron railings, all illuminated by a stunning domed Art Deco skylight overhead. The main level unfolds with gracious formal rooms designed for both grand entertaining and effortless flow. An elegantly appointed dining room transitions seamlessly into a spectacular chef's kitchen, where a striking black-and-white palette of stone and texture creates a timeless aesthetic. Top-tier appliances-including a side-by-side Sub-Zero glass-door refrigerator and freezer-complement a bespoke upholstered dining banquette, offering a restaurant-caliber culinary experience at home. Thoughtfully designed corridors and private retreats provide space for both gathering and solitude. A finely finished office of magazine-worthy distinction, a warm and inviting family room with an 80-inch television and custom lacquered walls, a first-floor laundry room, guest suite with full bath, and a fully equipped mudroom enhance everyday living. The heated four-car garage wing is a masterpiece in itself, featuring epoxy floors, custom cabinetry, and stone countertops-an exceptional showcase for the discerning automotive collector. Upstairs, an expansive second level hosts a primary suite truly fit for royalty. A serene sitting room with fireplace precedes a breathtaking onyx bath with dual custom vanities and a commercial-grade steam shower complete with body sprays and rain head. Bathed in natural light, the craftsmanship and stonework must be experienced to be fully appreciated. Four additional bedrooms, each with pristine white-stone en-suite baths, provide luxurious accommodations for family and guests. An exercise studio with a dedicated yoga retreat, adorned in palm-inspired wall coverings, offers a tranquil escape for wellness and balance. The fully finished lower level features a kitchenette, bath, wine room, and expansive entertainment spaces designed for comfort and leisure. Outdoors, enchanting terraces, sun-drenched patios, and winding pathways create a private oasis ideal for alfresco dining and elegant gatherings. Meticulously renovated with no expense spared and exquisitely furnished to celebrate its Art Deco heritage, this residence offers a rare rental opportunity-an experience more akin to a world-class luxury hotel than a private home.
