About 1871 W Salisbury Lane

Exceptional craftsmanship, timeless architecture, and curated designer updates define this distinguished custom French Country estate in Lake Forest's coveted Conway Farms community. Set on 1.17 picturesque acres, the residence offers more than 7,500 square feet of impeccably appointed living space, including the finished lower level. A gracious floor plan unfolds with formal living and dining rooms designed for effortless entertaining, a dramatic private study wrapped in rich navy hues, and an inviting family room anchored by custom millwork and refined architectural details. Freshly painted interiors, newly refinished hardwood floors, updated recessed lighting, and designer light fixtures enhance the home's warm yet sophisticated aesthetic, while extensive crown molding and wainscoting reflect its enduring quality. At the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen is both beautiful and functional, featuring custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a generous center island, premium appliances, and a refreshed backsplash. The adjoining butler's pantry has also been recently updated, offering seamless service for gatherings both large and intimate. Just beyond, a stunning screened porch with new millwork and a bluestone floor provides an inviting extension of the living space, overlooking the picturesque grounds. The primary suite is a true sanctuary, offering newer hardwood flooring, a spa-inspired bath with heated floors, and an extraordinary custom closet complete with its own private laundry. Three generously sized ensuite bedrooms on the second level provide exceptional comfort and privacy for family and guests alike. In 2026, the finished lower level was further enhanced with a brand-new media room, a newly added full bathroom, and new luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, creating an exceptional space for entertaining, relaxation, and recreation. The outdoor setting is equally impressive, with professionally designed landscaping, a welcoming paver stone walkway, and an expansive paver patio that creates an ideal backdrop for outdoor entertaining or quiet relaxation. Completing the home is a three-car garage with durable easy-care flooring, a whole-house generator for year-round peace of mind, and a new roof installed in 2022. A home of timeless elegance and exceptional quality, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy refined living in one of Lake Forest's most sought-after communities.
