Welcome to Modern Elegance in Lake Forest Estates. Step into a home that feels like an exclusive retreat, where modern elegance meets thoughtful design. Curated for refined living and effortless entertaining, this one-of-a-kind home showcases a contemporary floor plan where every detail is intentionally crafted and works together harmoniously.

The main primary suite is a true sanctuary, featuring a tranquil sitting area with calming views of the pool and a spa-inspired ensuite bath reminiscent of a five-star escape.

Outside, indulge in the pinnacle of backyard luxury: a saltwater pool and spa surrounded by lush landscaping, chaise loungers, and a timeless pergola. Lounge poolside in total serenity, sip handcrafted cocktails under the awning, or enjoy an al fresco lunch beneath the pergola. The abundant yard space offers a superb backdrop for everything from family volleyball matches to simply unwinding in the natural beauty of your private oasis. It's a safe, beautiful haven for children and pets to play freely. This is more than a home--it's an invitation to live beautifully.
