Description
This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from September 25, 2021
This incredibly charming, brick and cedar home sits on a wide lot, just a few blocks from the lake! Its striking curb appeal is further enhanced with extensive, mature landscaping and natural stone walkways and patio. With five bedrooms and 3.5 baths, this home offers maximum flexibility for families with children, as well as those needing a home office or gym space. Beautiful hardwood floors cover the majority of the first and second floor. The large family room opens to the expansive backyard and sits adjacent to the kitchen which features stainless steel appliances and marble countertops. A secondary family room on the first floor offers additional, versatile space. In 2018 the basement was completely gutted and transformed into a beautiful and bright space large enough for both a play room and recreation area. Upstairs, the spacious master bedroom features a fireplace and walk-in closet with custom built-ins. Additional improvements include all new window treatments and light fixtures, new paint throughout, new carpet in the secondary family room and many new mechanicals. Move right in and enjoy east Lake Bluff living at its finest - close to the lake, downtown Lake Bluff, Metra, parks, and schools.

8/10GreatSchools 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 Review10y ago - Lake Forest High School

10/10GreatSchools 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 Review1y ago - Lake Bluff Elementary School

7/10GreatSchools 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 Review3y ago - Check out schools near 525 E Washington Ave.
