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 a fireplace precedes a breathtaking onyx bath with dual custom vanities and a commercial-grade steam shower complete with body sprays and a 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 opportunity that feels more akin to a world-class luxury hotel than a private home....
