Description
Tucked away in one of Highland Park's most coveted east-of-Sheridan enclaves, just moments from the lakefront and jaw-dropping Rosewood Beach, this sprawling residence blends timeless architecture with refined amenities and over 10,000 square feet, offering a rare lifestyle of elegance, privacy, and ease. Situated on a lush, tree-canopied setting at nearly 3/4 of an acre, with manicured gardens, sculpted landscaping, and a grand circular drive that compliments the home's scale and serenity. Stucco-clad home with clay tile roof and a grand entry with soaring ceilings and dramatic architectural details create a deep first impression. The voluminous great room is a showstopper-anchored by a striking marble fireplace, floor-to-ceiling arched windows, and a dazzling custom chandelier, flooding the space with natural light and framing views of the verdant grounds. A light flooded kitchen awaits with walls of windows, custom cabinetry, sleek quartz counters, professional-grade appliances, and a sculptural center island-equal parts form and function. For more casual gatherings or multi-generational living, the lower-level second kitchen offers additional flexibility with a full suite of amenities. The expansive finished basement stretches out with nearly endless possibilities-all options on the table for large-scale recreation, home theater, gym, creative studio or multi-generational living. Full size multi person sauna on site as future feature of workout space. Multiple zones of heat and air, thoughtful storage throughout, full mud room with laundry center and attached three car garage. Unique configuration with six bedrooms plus library above grade and 6.2 baths with main level primary suite with dual primary baths including oversized soaking tub and multiple walk-in closets. 4 bedrooms are en-suite and there are over 12 skylights for abundant natural lighting. Tranquil and private rear yard with an oversized terrace framed by mature evergreens, flowering borders, and stone accents. Fruit trees and raised gardening beds, this secluded oasis is ideal for alfresco dining, morning meditation, or moonlit entertaining. Set just a short stroll from Lake Michigan and Highland Park's historic Ravinia District, within the Ravinia school district, 260 Beech offers a rare opportunity to own a substantial residence in one of the North Shore's most iconic neighborhoods.

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe schools building is very new but students don’t really want to come there same as me. the learning is not very good It is a little too hard for me maybe not for you so that’s not for sure. Teachers are OK some amazing some are horrible emotional support is OK. There is a school counselor to help you and it is handled pretty well. Special education is very good. If Students have special needs they go to small classes but because in the middle of the day, they switch to big classes it can feel overwhelming. I had some concerns about safety with some bullying going around and kids using hands it is usually handled, but not always fair. about family Engagement Some people can feel left out because the school is very big and if you don’t have any friends, people can make fun of you. The school has tons of homework pressure so you can expect about 2+ hours a day overall the school is: below average-AverageStudent Review5mo ago - Ravinia Elementary School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe school was horrible. I got bullied the teachers said “just ignore it” and the school sucks. We didn’t learn anything. Kids were out of control and the teachers were just on their phones after that I transferred to Sherwood. It was a much better school. The district itself is great, but that school was horrible.

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI can't blame the school itself for having such horrible students, but oh my it is horrendous. The type of children who attend this school act as if they are straight out of a cliquey movie. Most teachers are good, but there are plenty that are incapable of teaching. Shoutout Chris Kean and Julia Kapelnikova for being fantastic teachers who actually know how to teach! Lindsey Choy on the other-hand, loves to give out busy work that does not help learning in any way. I had her for US History last year, and it was a painful experience.Student Review2mo ago
