Welcome to this spectacular 1.52-acre ranch-like retreat-a private sanctuary tucked away on a serene lane off Voltz Road in East Northbrook. From the moment you arrive, a sweeping circular driveway framed by a canopy of trees sets the stage for this idyllic escape. The grounds are breathtaking, with manicured landscaping, lush perennial gardens, and a sparkling pool that make every sunrise and sunset feel extraordinary. Designed by award-winning architect Ralph Huszagh with both comfort and character in mind, this home offers the ease of ranch living enhanced by a stunning second-story A-framed studio. Inside, the thoughtful layout ensures that nearly every room enjoys garden views through expansive windows, filling the home with natural light and beautiful sightlines. Step into a spacious foyer leading to the inviting Living Room and Family Room, united by a double-sided fireplace. Warm wood-beamed ceilings, custom built-ins, and a wet bar create a cozy yet refined atmosphere--perfect for both relaxation and entertaining. The sunlit Kitchen features abundant cabinetry, a charming breakfast area overlooking the pool, and direct access to the covered patio with built-in barbeque for effortless indoor-outdoor living. A large Dining Room provides the perfect backdrop for elegant gatherings, while a well-appointed Laundry/Mudroom offers exceptional storage and convenience. The romantic Primary Suite is a private retreat, complete with direct access to the backyard and a beautifully tiled bath with glass shower. Three additional bedrooms, two full baths, and a powder room complete the main level. Upstairs, the dramatic A-framed space--flooded with light and overlooking the pool--has served as an art studio, rec room, home office, and gym. A fifth bedroom and full bath add versatility. The finished basement extends the living space with a rec room, fifth full bath, storage room, and craft area. Additional highlights include a whole-house generator, and a recently installed cedar shake roof (2022). Award winning Northfield schools & New Trier High School. A rare blend of beauty, privacy, and functionality-a true oasis you'll never want to leave. The property is an estate, and being sold "as is."
