Property Description

1144 Green Bay Road is a unique and unparalleled French Country estate originally built in 1937 by prominent architect, William Mann and meticulously restored in 1996 to resemble a French chateau. The exterior of the home was built with limestone and concrete base, and the interior was designed with steel supports and steel girder throughout, with most interior walls of plaster. Situated on 1.37 lush acres, the property combines old-world European elegance with modern amenities, featuring over 6,200 square feet of refined living space. Highlights include a dramatic stone facade, turret, and slate roof, front facing windows with a diamond lead design, new first floor windows in 2024. Home includes 4 zoned heating and air conditioning. Magnificent landscaped grounds with gardens, bronze sculptures, a custom pool, pool house, with full bath, and half court basketball court, or room to expand into a Pickleball court complete the exceptional yard. Inside, the entryway boasts marble floors, with herringbone hardwood floors throughout, custom millwork and plaster moldings, keeping with the essence of a French chateau. Elegant gathering spaces include a wood-paneled library, formal living room, dining room, family room, and garden room, as well as a chef's kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances. The expansive primary suite offers a spa-inspired bath and private balcony, while additional bedrooms and living areas provide comfort and versatility. Ideally located close to downtown Highland Park's restaurants, shopping, and the renowned Ravinia Festival, the estate offers both convenience and prestige. With both grandeur and intimacy, this iconic residence is a local landmark that is designed for entertaining, relaxation, and legacy living-an unmatched North Shore property that blends timeless heritage with contemporary sophistication.
