Enjoy elevated living in this professionally designed, move-in ready home located in The Preserve at Westleigh. With unobstructed views of Lake Forest Open Lands in a cul-de-sac setting, this custom-built residence blends luxury construction with high-end interior design by Tom Ferguson Interiors of Chicago.

This room flows effortlessly into a spacious chef's kitchen and dining area with picture windows and access to the backyard-ideal for both everyday comfort and entertaining. The first-floor primary suite offers privacy and tranquility, complete with a large walk-in closet and spa-like bath. A separate library with views of the front yard, powder room, and practical mudroom/laundry room add to the home's functional layout. Upstairs, two en-suite bedrooms and a spacious loft provide flexible space, with a large carpeted attic space that offers great potential for storage or future customization. The full, unfinished basement includes plumbing for a full bath and offers a generous space for adding additional living areas. The owner has drawings available to finish the basement, including rec room, bedroom, full bath and storage. A custom patio just off the kitchen is set to be finished this summer, offering views of the 17-acre Carruthers Nature Preserve -- Lake Forest's newest accessible spot for birding and fishing, complete with scenic walking trails. All just minutes from Lake Forest's shopping, schools, train station, and parks, this home is an exceptional opportunity to enjoy beautiful new construction in a serene setting.
