This home for sale is sophisticated on the outside but goes wild inside. Check it out
A positively stunning home on the real estate market in Lake Forest, Illinois, has managed to turn a few heads on a popular Twitter segment thanks to its fun interior.
The five-bedroom, eight-bathroom residence is considered a “gem” on Zillow.com and listed for $1.89 million. On the outside, the home appears to illuminate elegance with its light sunshine color and white trim that contrasts beautifully with the lush greenery that surrounds it.
While a great deal of the interior does share the exterior’s chic appeal, there are some amenities that scream “party time!” within its walls — like its indoor pool, which is draped in rich colors.
Other features on the property include:
Full tennis court
Basketball area
Greenhouse
Outdoor swimming pool
Outdoor kitchen/bar
Stone fireplace
Chef’s kitchen
Game room
Massive laundry room
Bonus room
Therapy tub
Gym
Stylist room
Another huge draw of the 7,519-square-foot residence is its basement.
“This beauty’s basement adds another 3800 square feet, showcasing a total of 11,000-plus square feet of lifestyle and living space,” the listing says.
“Love the custom bar with high end commercial grade appliances and incredible wine room! Step to the TICKET BOOTH (yes, I said ticket booth!) to the most incredible home theater with an awesome sound system, twinkle lights and custom storage sleek cabinetry! Movie night anyone?”
It was the indoor pool and spa that managed to grab the attention of folks on Friday Night Zillow, a Twitter segment run by Bloomberg reporter Steven Dennis.
“Crazy party tub time! In a really big house in Lake Forest, Illinois w/a 10/10 rated high school for $1.895M,” Dennis tweeted.
And people were amused.
“Yikes! Looks like something out of Stranger Things,” one person said of the therapy tub.
“The outdoor pool and tennis court are nice tho! And the kitchen!” another tweeted.
“Strange, you look out the windows and see your neighbor, only it’s not your neighbor, its another part of your own home.
Lake Forest is about 35 miles north of Chicago.
