Designed by David Adler as the coach house for the historic Centaurs estate in 1928, the Tower House remains one of Lake Forest's most celebrated architectural icons set near the shores of Lake Michigan. The five-story Italianate-style residence overlooks nearly an acre of private, wooded grounds, culminating in the famous tower, which features expansive views of the lake and the surrounding estate. The property is currently owned by acclaimed designer Kara Mann, who has meticulously designed plans for a potential renovation to modernize this significant historic property. Privacy is a defining feature of this Lake Forest estate, as it's visible only through the wrought-iron gates and accessible via a courtyard. The interiors, including the kitchen and baths, have been renovated by previous owners while preserving the home's architectural integrity and detailing. Adler's love for symmetry, historic style, and craftsmanship is captured in coved ceilings, arched doorways, Art Deco-style tray ceilings, original brick and wood floors, and Palladian-inspired arched windows and French doors that mirror each other. Natural light pours through expansive windows, illuminating the main living and dining areas. Heights reach up to eleven feet, giving these spaces a sense of volume. The residence is thoughtfully arranged across five distinct levels, centering on a main floor that balances grand entertaining with privacy and separation. The chef's kitchen is equipped with European-style cabinetry, Wolf, Sub-Zero, Viking, and Miele appliances, and opens to a sun-drenched solarium-the only addition to the original Adler footprint. A library with custom built-ins leads to a main-level guest suite. On the second floor, the layout provides a dedicated retreat with two primary suites and a bright, renovated laundry room. The architectural narrative continues upward through the tower, housing a fourth en-suite bedroom on the third level and the historic Byzantine Room on the fourth. This space features uniquely preserved murals by Russian-born artist Nicolai Remisoff, one of the few remaining examples of his work (the other is at the Lake Forest Library Rotunda). A fifth secluded bedroom suite and sitting area occupy the final interior level. The vertical journey concludes on the rooftop terrace, where treetop views and panoramas of the lake and the distant Chicago skyline offer a perspective as singular as the architecture itself. The property is completed by a detached two-car garage, an expansive patio, a private courtyard, and a lawn area suitable for a future pool. The Tower House stands as one of Lake Forest's most significant David Adler projects, now with the rare advantage of a renovation vision for its next chapter as a luxury North Shore residence.

455 Hunter Lane, Lake Forest

$1,000,000

Nestled within the quiet enclave of Academy Woods, this residence offers a sophisticated blend of refined architecture and an intimate connection to the surrounding landscape. This home begins with a grand two-story foyer, where red oak hardwood floors and an abundance of natural light establish an immediate sense of warmth and scale. The main level is thoughtfully designed for both quiet retreats and seamless entertaining; a vaulted living room anchored by a classic fireplace serves as the home's centerpiece, while the formal dining room adds a touch of traditional elegance. The heart of the home-a recently refreshed chef's kitchen, breakfast nook, and family room-are intentionally all interconnected, creating a seamless flow of space that overlooks the meticulously landscaped grounds. The primary suite, located on the first floor for ultimate ease, is a private sanctuary featuring a beautifully updated bathroom with an expansive, modern shower and a private door to the rear yard. Practicality is handled with equal care, evidenced by the large, combined laundry and mudroom positioned just off the two-car attached garage. Upstairs, a versatile loft provides a serene space for an office or sitting area, accompanied by a spacious ensuite bedroom. An additional primary suite serves as a secondary retreat, offering an extra-large footprint with a dedicated seating area perfect for a quiet workspace. For those with a grander vision, the oversized, high-ceilinged basement stands as a vast, open canvas, waiting to be transformed into a premier lower-level destination. The exterior is a testament to privacy and curated outdoor living. The maintenance free backyard is an exceptionally secluded oasis, bordered by mature trees with no rear neighbors to interrupt the view. A custom paver patio and professional plantings create an elegant setting for outdoor dining or reflection. Beyond the property line, the lifestyle is defined by the unique beauty of Academy Woods. Residents enjoy direct access to the Middlefork Savanna's walking trails, which lead through open lands and past serene lakes and rivers to the historic Elawa Farm. While the setting feels deeply tranquil, it remains effortlessly connected, located just minutes from the Metra, major highways, and the premier shopping and dining of Lake Forest and Vernon Hills. Freshly painted and in phenomenal condition, this home is a rare find for the discerning buyer.

855 Jennifer Court, Lake Forest

$2,291,250

Designed by acclaimed North Shore architect Edward Deegan in collaboration with the award-winning team at SZ Interiors, this recently completed custom residence represents a rare alternative to much of today's new construction. Every architectural detail, finish, and material was thoughtfully selected to create a home of lasting quality, timeless design, and everyday livability. Privately set on nearly one acre, the home sits well back from Everett Road behind mature trees and thoughtfully landscaped grounds, creating an uncommon sense of privacy while remaining just minutes from Market Square, schools, Lake Michigan, and approximately a seven-minute walk to the Metra. Inspired by the character of an American cottage and interpreted through a refined contemporary lens, the home features white oak flooring, soaring ceilings, expansive Marvin windows, and exceptional natural light throughout. A dramatic central stair tower serves as the architectural focal point, connecting each level while framing beautiful views of the surrounding canopy of mature oaks. The great room is both elegant and inviting, featuring dramatic vaulted ceilings, a limestone fireplace, designer lighting, and French doors that create a seamless transition to a covered outdoor living space with its own fireplace and a separate patio accented by cafe lights-an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining well into the evening. At the heart of the home, the chef's kitchen was designed for serious cooking and effortless entertaining. Custom cabinetry is paired with a substantial white oak island topped in dramatic Viola marble, professional Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, and a curated collection of Perrin & Rowe fixtures, including a classic bridge faucet, pot filler, and dedicated filtered water faucet. Throughout the remainder of the home, House of Rohl plumbing fixtures continue the home's commitment to timeless design and exceptional craftsmanship. Every cabinet, built-in, and millwork detail was custom designed specifically for this residence, reflecting a level of craftsmanship and finish rarely found in today's new construction. The first-floor primary suite offers the comfort of a private retreat with vaulted ceilings, heated marble floors, Calacatta marble, a Victoria + Albert soaking tub, oversized shower, custom cabinetry, and generous walk-in storage. A richly detailed private office with custom built-ins provides an ideal work-from-home environment overlooking the grounds. Two spacious, light-filled bedrooms and a beautifully appointed bath occupy the second floor, connected to the main living spaces and the lower level by the home's dramatic windowed stair tower. Below, the bright, fully finished lower level offers a true fourth bedroom, a beautifully appointed full bath, and a spacious recreation room. Oversized east- and west-facing windows fill both spaces with natural light throughout the day, creating a lower level that feels more like the main living areas than a traditional basement. A detached garage connected by a covered breezeway creates an estate-like composition rarely found in newer homes. Above, a fully finished and insulated space is ready to become a studio, office, fitness room, guest suite, or additional living area. The grounds are equally exceptional. More than a dozen mature oak trees provide a magnificent natural canopy while extensive hydrangea gardens, formal boxwoods, and thoughtfully designed landscaping create beauty, privacy, and year-round interest. Built with an uncompromising commitment to architecture, craftsmanship, and enduring materials-not simply to satisfy a market-this is a home that stands apart. A rare opportunity to own a truly custom residence where timeless architecture, exceptional craftsmanship, and an extraordinary setting come together in one of Lake Forest's most distinctive newer homes.
