Just Listed! A complete transformation in one of Lake Forest’s most sought-after neighborhoods. 💫

This exceptional Arbor Ridge Cape Cod has been extensively rebuilt and reimagined —combining the character of an established home with the quality and finishes of new construction.

Highlights include a stunning chef’s kitchen with custom cabinetry, quartzite countertops and an oversized island; beautiful white oak floors; four bedrooms upstairs including a luxurious new primary suite; a first-floor office/guest suite; and a private bonus suite above the heated 3-car garage.

The finished lower level offers even more living space, while new landscaping and patio complete the transformation.

Just steps from Everett Elementary School and Park, with shopping, dining and the Metra nearby.

Beautifully designed. Completely turnkey. An incredible opportunity in Arbor Ridge.

Open House on Saturday, 10/3 from 12:00-2:00pm and Sunday, 10/4 from 2:00-4:00pm.

Thank you, Sheridan Road, for including us in your 2026 Power Women issue. We’re honored to be featured alongside so many smart and accomplished women across the North Shore.

When we first decided to go into business together, more than a few people told us we were crazy—that family and business don’t mix.

We’re so glad we didn’t listen.

As it turns out, being family has been one of the greatest strengths of our business. We trust each other, know each other’s strengths (and weaknesses!), push each other, laugh a lot, and always know we’re on the same team.

Being family has also shaped the way we do business. We genuinely care about the people we work with and try to treat every client the way we’d want someone to treat our own family.

“Treat people the way you’d want your own family to be treated. In business and in life, relationships always come first.”

Thank you, Sheridan Road, for sharing our story. 🤍
