Located on one of the most prestigious Gold Coast blocks, this Howard Van Doren Shaw home has been beautifully updated, offering over 8500 square feet with a layout made for entertaining as well as the ease of everyday living. A prominent double door entry gives a welcoming feel while the gracious foyer and wide entryway give a gracious feel. The living room features a wall of west facing bay windows with built in bench seating, an original fireplace, and the most gorgeous ceiling detail. Adjacent to the living space is the location for a stately library with an additional fireplace that is original to the home and provides a focal to the room. The formal dining room features double doors that open to a Juliet balcony overlooking a secret garden with a serene water feature that really adds to the ambiance. The ultra bright, east-facing kitchen/great room features all modern, custom cabinetry, quartzite countertops, state of the art top end appliances, eat in space, and ample storage throughout. There is a true butler's pantry for even more storage and a walk-in pantry. A short staircase off of the great room leads to an unbelievable six hundred square foot rear terrace with an outdoor kitchen, beautiful plantings, and great space to host and entertain with all day sunshine. The second level of the home is currently set up to be a full primary level, featuring a gracious bedroom overlooking tree lined Astor, dual baths, dual closets/dressing rooms, a home office, plus a casual sitting room that opens onto an enclosed porch. The top level offers four nicely sized bedrooms, two ensuite, while the other two share a large hall bath. There is also bedroom level laundry on this floor. The home's lower level will certainly not disappoint, featuring a spa/massage room with a steam shower, wine cellar, large recreational space/media room, cozy guest suite, plus additional laundry and an exercise room. There is also access to the attached two car garage, a truly rare find. Truly one of the best Gold Coast locations and properties, walking distance to the lake front, sensational dining, and the best shopping.
