Property Description

Welcome home to Academy Woods, an intimate enclave of 77 maintenance-free single-family residences, gracefully nestled within the former J. Armour Estate and surrounded by the breathtaking Lake County Forest Preserves. A true hidden gem in Lake Forest, this community is known for its thoughtful design, serene natural setting, and welcoming atmosphere. Situated at the end of a premiere cul-de-sac sits 633 Academy Woods Drive. This meticulously maintained home with a MAIN FLOOR PRIMARY SUITE is ready for you to move right in. Be greeted by voluminous living spaces, hardwood flooring, and loads of natural light flooding in from the wall of windows facing the wooded, private land behind. The main floor features a private office with built-in desk and bookcases, a formal dining room, and a laundry room with ample cabinetry and newer washer & dryer. The beating heart of this home is the extraordinary chef's kitchen with custom cabinetry, high end stainless steel appliances (Wolf, Viking, and SubZero), granite and soapstone countertops, and a huge island with room for barstools. Your kitchen opens up to a grand family room with soaring ceilings and a wall of windows that showcase the picturesque land behind. The main floor primary suite features a private deck, enormous walk-in closet, and updated spa-bathroom with jacuzzi and separate shower. Your second floor features 2 en-suite bedrooms, one with a large tandem room that lives like an additional bedroom or second family room. The fully finished lower level was custom-upgraded by the builder for the original owners and features taller-than-typical ceilings, a dry-bar, full bathroom, a fabulous family room, and a high-end home gym (easily a 4th bedroom as well). The bones of this house are all new/newer including: a composite shingle room (NOT Cedar), two new furnaces, two new water heaters, newer sump pump with battery back-up, a back-up generator, and so much more. All kitchen appliances are also newer. Academy Woods is a premiere maintenance-free community...low quarterly assessments include landscaping, snow removal, exterior repainting every 6 years, common ground maintenance, annual social events, and more. Sellers are looking for a buyer who can be patient and flexible, allowing them to close in early to mid November. Please inquire for more information.
