Description
Rare offering in East Lake Bluff with seasonal Lake Michigan views. This oversized corner lot, just a block from the lake, features a stately brick colonial renovated by LaDuke Associates and landscaped by Chalet Nursery. The storybook entrance leads to a spacious dining room with a custom marble fireplace and French doors to the patio. The light-filled living room and primary suite offer lake views. All bedrooms are thoughtfully en-suite. The chef's kitchen includes high-end appliances, black soapstone counters, Italian glass lighting, and a cozy window seat. The deep-pour basement has a full bath and family room for extra living space, and the backyard oasis includes a fenced garden, three-tiered fountain, apple trees, outdoor shower, fire pit, and saltwater hot tub. With every detail thoughtfully crafted, this home is a rare gem in East Lake Bluff.

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI was a new student here and my experience was not the best to say the least. Most teachers were friendly and nice and the school had an interesting fine arts program, I mean, but I found it extremely hard to get used to the school. I don't think I ever will actually. Compared to my past schools I felt that some areas needed to be worked on such as social studies because it seems to have a weak curriculum. I found it interesting that the north Chicago kids who go here stick out like sore thumbs since lake bluff kids dress affluent. There seems to be an invisible economic and social boundary line between the two regions as I see it. The most disappointing part of the school I thought was the principal, Nate Blackmer. I found myself relating him to a cheesy salesman who wants to appear friendly but it's because it is part of job to be. He just seems fake and when I asked him something, he made an excuse of how busy he was instead of even attempting to listen. Also he sees me and knows who I am but ignored me, which is definitely not the best welcoming behaviour.Other Review12y ago - Lake Forest High School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageQuite possibly the best education any child would be lucky enough to receive in this country. The environment is geared toward learning and advancement toward college and a professional career. Teachers are engaging and knowledgeable. The only hit or miss is the administrative staff. Solid school, solid education along with a great athletic program. Highly recommend LFHSParent Review3y ago - Lake Bluff Elementary School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageRecent administrative changes have resulted in great improvement of the district overall. The district's Covid-response plan was the best of any district in the area. The new Director of Student Services is a huge improvement from the previous administrator. Some educational programming definitely needs to be updated, but overall this district is moving in a positive direction.Parent Review5y ago
