Charming home near Lake Michigan, bike paths, and high school

This peaceful and elegant five-bedroom, three-bathroom home is situated three minutes by car from Lake Michigan, a ten-minute walk from downtown Lake Forest, and a two-minute walk from LFHS. With its comfortable layout and spacious living room with a fireplace and view that looks out to a beautiful backyard patio and garden, it is the perfect place to unwind and relax while taking in the beauty of Lake Forest.
