A rare marriage of history, architectural artistry, and modern 2026 luxury, Villa Turicum is more than an estate-it is a legendary landmark that helped define the grandeur & enduring legacy of Chicago's North Shore. Truly an extraordinary state-of-the-art continuation of a Rockefeller legacy set on more than five breathtaking acres with over 570 feet of private Lake Michigan frontage, making this the largest lakefront estate ever to be offered to the public. The experience begins at a newly protected cove beach, complete with two boat launches and a boathouse, where the dramatic approach from Lake Michigan towards the estate unfolds as you ascend up the original Italian-inspired curved terraced stairways to the historic grounds. Admiring the famous iconic shell basin fountain & a whimsical piece of Edith Rockefeller's legacy-her famed alligator sculpture, guarded by two beautifully carved pelicans- you reach the top of the bluff with stunning views of the 7-year-young newly built luxury compound in the distance. With the endless blue waters as the breathtaking backdrop, the manicured grounds lead to a spectacular resort-level pool, outdoor kitchen & separate stone spa elegantly accented by a sculptural lion's head fountain; this is the real front door entry to this 20,000 square feet of finished space masterpiece. With incredible unobstructed panoramic lake views from the entire East side, this open concept floorplan is all about relaxed luxury. The handsome walnut paneled foyer, limestone floors sprinkled with golden-hued stones imported from Jerusalem, accent the custom arched double doors & intricate wrought-iron curved staircase. Your own RL Polo lounge-inspired library feels like your ultimate private club, opening directly to the bluestone loggia with outdoor fireplace & spa area. Sun-drenched living room flows seamlessly into the elegant dining as the wall of French doors keeps Lake Michigan front and center. Tailored white Christopher Peacock kitchen with reclaimed wood ceiling beams and massive island in hue blue/grey quartzite organically blends with the lake and is paired with the bes of the the best: La Cornue, Miele, Waterworks, Sub-Zero. Breakfast room flows right into the cozy step-down family room with a coffered ceiling, FP, and wet bar. Take the elevator to the second floor where the primary suite takes full advantage of its lakefront setting. French doors open to a private bluestone balcony overlooking Lake Michigan, 2 separate custom closets and a luxe spa bath create a true private retreat. Four additional bedroom suites, each with their own personality, are beautifully finished with exquisite marble baths and outdoor access to enjoy lake views all year long. 2nd laundry room with 3 washers & 3 dryers off the 2nd staircase down to auxiliary mudroom area. And then there is the spectacular lower level with a wellness wing equipped gym, custom spa boutique with RIVA jetted tub, overhead rain shower, fireplace, steam shower and sauna. It keeps going with a 16-seat theater, billards room, lounge/club wet bar, joined by an impressive wine room with glass views of the underground 16-car garage with separate drive-up to snowmelt stone motor court framed by two three-car garages. The replication cost of just the home alone today is over $17m, as the civil engineering was that of a commercial-level build. Now add the 570 private ft. of lakefront on 5 acres, the resort outdoor hardscaped grounds, and then the amazing historic remenets. All of this is why Villa Turicum represents the pinnacle of lakefront luxury at an undeniable value, as this will trade generational hands to someone who cherishes and values the new build but embraces the history of owning a legendary piece of the North Shore. Villa Turicum defines the phrase "one of one"!

901 Lake Road, Lake Forest

$6,250,000

On the market for the first time in nearly 50 years, the historic Phelps Kelley House is one of Lake Bluff's most significant estate properties. Designed in 1927 by noted Chicago architect Ambrose Cramer, a protege of David Adler, this Tudor Revival masterpiece was originally part of the historic "Stonebridge" estate. The 9.35-acre property is elegantly situated at the end of a long, private, tree-lined drive, and features a pond, rolling lawn, mature trees, gardens, a 7,383-square-foot main residence with meticulously preserved interiors, and a detached 5-car garage with a full coach house apartment above. Across five decades, one family has carefully stewarded the character of this home, preserving its original grandeur through its stone floors, carved millwork, wood paneling, intricate moldings, tall casement windows, and generous ceiling heights. Cramer carefully planned the floorplan for gracious living and entertaining. A grand entry leads to expansive formal living and dining rooms-each with fireplaces and French doors opening to an expansive terrace overlooking verdant gardens and the pool beyond. A paneled sunroom offers a quiet retreat with views of the grounds and lends itself perfectly to a sun-filled private office. Service areas are thoughtfully configured for ease: a large butler's pantry with extensive vintage cabinetry connects the dining room to the kitchen, which adjoins a sunlit breakfast room oriented toward the pool. A spacious family room provides yet another vantage point to appreciate the property's natural beauty. Additional first-floor conveniences include a large laundry room, back staircase, and discreet storage integrated throughout. Five bedrooms and six full baths complete the second floor, including a primary suite that functions as its own private wing with dual baths, multiple closets, and a dressing room rich with period character. Two additional bedrooms and 1.1 baths on the first floor offer ideal space for guests or multi-generational living. The lower level includes a powder bath and abundant storage space, but could also be converted into a future recreation room. The property's park-like grounds elevate the estate into a true retreat that feels worlds away. Outdoor amenities include a swimming pool, greenhouse, and a prior tennis court site that provides exceptional potential for a new court or custom outdoor recreation. Meandering paths encourage exploration, while open lawns and a broad terrace facilitate gatherings of any scale. Adding to the estate's pastoral charm, the current owners maintain beehives on the property for small-batch honey production. The greenhouse, beehives, and expanses of lawn and garden reinforce the feeling of escape that a private country estate provides while being only minutes from Lake Bluff's beloved community fabric: downtown's charming shops and dining, the Metra station, Sunrise Beach, highly rated schools, outstanding parks, and the town's renowned Fourth of July celebration. A once-in-a-generation offering, the Phelps Kelley House represents the finest expression of North Shore heritage. It is an estate in the truest sense, meticulously preserved and ready to begin its next chapter.

Ralph Lauren print campaigns, features in Architectural Digest, film productions, and even the latest Crate & Barrel holiday catalog all point to one thing: great architecture never goes out of style. And more than a century later, David Adler's "Innisfail I" is every bit as extraordinary today. Set on over two breathtaking acres, this landmark estate is ready now to be experienced through a new 2026 lens. The pool, spa, tennis court, and sauna all are just the side features that bring this magnificent lifestyle home to life, as David Adler designed is country luxury estate with one thing in mind...a destination for all to enjoy. His one primary focus with his interiors was "proportions"- always wanting his rooms to have volume with soaring ceilings but still feel intimate. He finished these spaces with endless sets of French doors bringing the gardens inside, and exquisite original details from intricate millwork to Versailles and herringbone parquet floors. The oversized reception hall immediately sets the tone, opening through 10-foot doorways to the spectacular great room where walls of French doors, handcrafted millwork & grand chandeliers frame the endless terraces & gardens beyond. Sun-drenched entertaining spaces flow effortlessly from the living to the dining room, richly paneled library and sunroom, while the Chef's kitchen, oversized butler's pantry and sunny breakfast room make the house equally suited for everyday living. Upstairs, a beautiful hotel-level wrapped wrought-iron staircase leads to eight bedrooms, including the expansive primary suite with fireplace and private dressing room. The third floor changes the mood completely with a speakeasy-style bar, bedroom and full bath-proof that a house this important can still have a little fun. And then there are the grounds which alone today to duplicate would be over $2m in just design and install. Originally designed by legendary landscape architect Jens Jensen, the estate unfolds across formal gardens, sweeping lawns and mature trees, with a pool, spa and tennis court creating the ultimate private country retreat. Innisfail I has been photographed, published and filmed for generations for a reason. Today estates can be built, not doubt about that, but there is nothing like architecture that can always withstand the test of time. NOW it's time to re-imagine this space with a hue of transitional colors, clean-lined furniture and a revamp from gold to simply white. This is a designer's dream palate as this estate is just waiting to be the next showpiece estate in the North Shore as the pedigree is already in place!

Introducing a historic modernist ranch-style residence on the market for the very first time. Poised on just under eight private wooded acres adjacent to the prestigious Shoreacres Golf Course with incredible grounds and flowering gardens, this meticulously maintained single-owner home was built in 1978 and designed by John Black Lee Associates, a respected mid-century modern architect and proponent of the Glass House School of modern residential architecture from Marcel Breuer and Philip C. Johnson. With a large solarium serving as its centerpiece, this 4,286 square-foot architectural masterpiece is defined by strong indoor-outdoor connection created by open flowing spaces, volume ceilings, skylights, abundant walls of glass and sliding doors leading to the stunning natural surroundings. The original architectural details shine, including the floor-to-ceiling marble fireplaces in the living, family room and primary suite, herringbone-patterned brick flooring and incredible tall interior wood doors. A gracious family room with wet bar, dining room and living room are bathed in natural light, offering multiple options for entertaining. The original, sunny kitchen has skylights, a built-in banquette, and sliding doors to the outside allowing easy access for alfresco dining on one of the many patios. The primary suite has a floor-to-ceiling marble fireplace flanked by built-in cabinetry, a wall of sliding glass doors leading to the west patio, striking hardwood flooring, walls of closets and private bath.

A first-floor laundry room, large unfinished basement and attached two car heated garage complete the floorplan.
