Units n/a

Welcome to 860 Gage Lane, a spacious home offering six bedrooms, six and a half baths, an office, a bar, an exercise room, heated 3.5 car attached garage, and a large yard on 1.4 acres. This bright home is located on a very private and quiet street at the end of a cul-de-sac. As you enter, natural light floods the space through large windows. The first areas you'll notice on the main level are the living room, formal dining room, powder room, and a sunny office with a fireplace and built-ins. The open floor plan features a light-filled, two-story family room with east-facing exposure, connected to the kitchen. The kitchen offers Sub-Zero, Viking, and Gaggenau appliances, an island, a butler's pantry with a Whirlpool wine cooler (2022), wine storage, and a breakfast room. The kitchen overlooks the professionally landscaped yard and patio. A cozy sitting room with a fireplace adjoins the family room and provides access to the large backyard. Past the kitchen, you'll find a spacious laundry room. The private first floor bedroom with an en-suit bathroom and separate access to the patio is perfect for guests or live-in residents who need extra privacy. Upstairs, the primary suite features a sitting area, four closets, and a sun-filled bathroom with separate vanities, a soaking tub, a separate shower, a skylight, and views of the backyard. The second floor also offers three additional bedrooms, two with en-suite bathrooms, and a full hall bathroom. The bedroom adjacent to the primary is ideal as a nursery, seating area, or dressing room. A loft balcony overlooks the family, sitting, and breakfast rooms. The fully finished basement includes another bedroom with ample closet space and a full bathroom. The basement also features a built-out bar with a wine cooler, beverage refrigerator, ice maker, and liquor cabinet. There's a custom office with two desks and filing cabinets, an exercise room, a recreation room with built-ins for TV and media, a play area, and plenty of storage. Additional features include solid hardwood floors (refinished 2022), surround sound speakers throughout (including the patio), ceiling heights ranging from 9 to 20 feet, a new chandelier and sconces in the family room (2022), an underground sprinkler system with a new controller (2023), a new fence with two gates (2022), a new sump pump (2022), hot water heaters (2015), and a Bosch air conditioning unit for the second level (2022). The roof and mechanicals (other than mentioned) are original from 1999. The expansive fenced-in yard offers space for a pool or tennis court. Conveniently located near the Metra and minutes from downtown Lake Forest.
