Once in a lifetime opportunity to own one of the most coveted estates in the Midwest with a main house, attached coachhouse, guest house, pool, pool house, conservatory, and awe-inspiring gardens with 21 "rooms" spanning almost 9 acres, near Lake Michigan! This magnificent brick Georgian home was designed by noted architect Benjamin H. Marshall in 1904. He was an influential Chicago architect of the roaring 20's, most remembered for designing the Drake Hotel. The house was built for Mr. and Mrs. John T. Pirie. Mr. Pirie was president and heir to Carson, Pirie Scott & Company. The current owners purchased the estate from Laurance H. Armour, Jr. in 1988. The facade of the house reflects the Prairie School of architecture, with its row of wide windows, portico and three-story gable, with an Italianate influence featuring Tuscan columns and bowed windows. The spectacular landscape was designed in the 1920's by Rose Standish Nichols. This fabulous estate includes a breathtaking expanse of bentgrass lawns, majestic trees and a series of 21 awe-inspiring outdoor "rooms," most of which were created by the current owners who engaged prominent landscape architects throughout the development of the gardens. After the current homeowners took possession in 1988, they proceeded with a decade long house and garden renovation and expansion of remarkable stewardship enhancing the property to its current state of splendor. In the mid 90's two neighboring properties on Mayflower were purchased allowing for the expansion of the gardens and the addition of the pool house, pool and guest house. They extended the gardens well beyond the historic landscape plan employing the highest quality and nationally recognized architectural and landscape professionals, preserving its historical character and recreating a classic Lake Forest estate. The expansion in 2008 was the most important event in the history of local country places in 60 years and significantly elevated the architectural quality of this section of Mayflower Road. The landscape is the collaboration of many including Tom and Kirsten Beeby, New York Garden Estate Landscape Architect & Designer Deborah Nevins, and local landscape architects Frank Mariani, Craig Bergmann, and P. Clifford Miller. The most important influence was the owner's passion and creative talent for gardening, as well as their love of nature that was the driving force behind this extraordinary one-of-a-kind landscape. There is arguably no other property like this in the country with its array of captivating garden rooms, lush, wooded ravine garden, exquisite millefleur seasonal garden beds and long-term mixed plantings, perfectly manicured hedges, majestic trees, espalier trees, and captivating beauty at every turn that brings inner peace, inspiration and exuberance showing that even in Chicago's diverse climate it is possible to have a wonderful English garden. The owner's passion for gardening and beauty is evident throughout this magnificent, meticulously maintained estate. Incredibly rare opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind Country House era estate in the heart of east Lake Forest near Lake Michigan and all that downtown Lake Forest offers.

A rare opportunity arises to own a singular architectural masterpiece designed and built in 1979 by noted architect, Roy Binkley for his own family. Sited on 2.8 privileged acres encompassing the historic Stanley Field estate garden and croquet field on Lake Michigan, this iconic property stands as an ode to modernism and featured in Architectural Digest. The home was inspired by the cubic simplicity of Mies van der Rohe, under whom Binkley studied. A dynamic interplay between hard lines and soft curves, openness and enclosure, and old and new unfolds throughout the circular floor plan. Unique architectural details from a floating staircase and limestone floors on the main level to double-dome skylights create visual interest. Soaring ceilings and expansive walls of glass blur the lines between interior and exterior, offering panoramic vistas of the lake from nearly every vantage point. Each level of the three-story home presents a separate stage and a different scene. Mature trees and meticulous landscaping further enhance the feeling of a secluded, private lakefront sanctuary. Having passed through only two sets of discerning owners, the home has been meticulously cared for since its inception. Recent updates include a thoughtful conversion of the exterior to stucco in 2018 and a complete roof replacement in 2020. Conscientious restoration and renovation have ensured every element reflects the spirit of contemporary living. The kitchen, primary suite, second-floor hall bath, and laundry have all been modernized with an astute eye for detail. On the third floor, the autonomous treetop suite, once the architect's studio, underwent a clever transformation into a spacious fourth bedroom suite complete with closet and en-suite bath. From here, enjoy panoramic views of Lake Michigan from wide curved picture window. Joan Binkley's former artist studio now offers a welcoming family room. Attached to the 3-car garage is a separate garden room with sink and full bath, which could be a fifth bedroom with ensuite bath perfect for guests, in-laws or office. Internationally renowned landscape architect Doug Hoerr further elevated the property in 2001 with a redesigned hardscape and garden, including a large limestone terrace mirroring the home's interior. Additional features include four independently controlled HVAC zones for comfort. An unfinished lower level provides ample storage, including a wine cellar and a cedar closet. Revetment work in the early 2000s and further stabilization efforts involving railroad ties and partial stairs in 2016 ensure continued peace of mind for the next owner. Additionally, a permanent easement exists on the property, shared with two neighboring homes, for access to the north side of the property. This exceptional offering presents an unparalleled opportunity to own a piece of architectural history in Lake Bluff. Roy Binkley's modernist masterpiece, nestled amidst the natural beauty of Lake Michigan, awaits a discerning owner who appreciates timeless design and breathtaking surroundings.
