This exceptional investment and owner-user opportunity is a premier mixed-use trophy asset situated in the heart of Libertyville's vibrant Downtown Core at 545-547 N Milwaukee Avenue. Downtown Libertyville properties rarely change hands especially ones as turn key and stable. This meticulously maintained two-story building perfectly blends historic architectural charm with high-end modern infrastructure. For the owner-occupant, this property offers a rare chance to elevate your brand and your team's quality of life by establishing a corporate headquarters on the second floor. The 6000 square foot modern open floor plan office suite provides a sophisticated workspace characterized by premium finishes and an abundance of natural light, fostering a true live-work-play environment where employees are steps away from award-winning dining, boutique shopping, the Metra station and residential neighborhoods. The building is unique in that it features multiple tenants across its diverse floor plan, which significantly enhances investment stability through diversified income streams. The current owner-occupant is prepared to vacate to accommodate your business or remain in place under a lease-back agreement, offering ultimate flexibility for your transition. From an investor standpoint, this is a recession-resistant asset that allows you to add a high-performing trophy property to your portfolio. The ground floor is anchored by two stable restaurant tenants signed to long-term leases, providing a reliable and diversified cash flow from day one. The building is fully ADA compliant and all parking requirements have been satisfied, which is a significant competitive advantage in a dense downtown corridor. Originally built in 1920 and significantly remodeled in 2008, the property features high-end interior build-outs including slate tiling and hickory flooring. Furthermore, the local economy is poised for even greater growth as Libertyville will be adding close to 300 residential units to its downtown district in the coming years. This increase in density will help bolster the already high visibility and heavy pedestrian traffic, ensuring the long-term desirability and value of this downtown core location.

A Quintessential Lake Forest Manor with Storied Legacy and Timeless Elegance. Perched on 2.5 acres along Lake Road, this iconic Lake Forest estate offers a rare blend of architectural pedigree, historical significance, and modern refinement. Originally designed in 1907 by renowned architect Howard Van Doren Shaw for Helen Poole Thompson, the home stands as a testament to early 20th-century craftsmanship and design. The original landscape was masterfully envisioned by Charles Platt and Rose Standish Nichols, later reimagined by celebrated garden designer Rosemary Verey, and meticulously maintained by Craig Bergmann. The result is an extraordinary harmony between house and garden, where every view is artfully framed. Inside, the 7,700 sq ft residence is rich with character and sophistication. Signature features include a paneled wood living room imported from France, limestone floors in the grand entrance hall, and a stunning garden room with panoramic views of the south lawn. Original French doors, restored with brass cremone bolts, offer historic charm with modern functionality. A comprehensive renovation in 1989 by Colfax and Fowler introduced thoughtful additions including a billiards room, family room, and an attached two-car garage. The kitchen, breakfast room, and butler's pantry were fully updated with custom cabinetry and hand-scraped pine floors by Van Krumpen Woodworks, blending warmth with luxury. Upstairs, the second floor offers five bedrooms, an office, and five bathrooms, all elegantly updated to maintain a timeless appeal. In 2010, Liederbach and Graham added a stunning architectural feature: a replica of Samuel McIntire's Massachusetts Folly, complete with a kitchen, 1/2 bath, and a versatile second-floor living space ideal as an office or studio. Overlooking the inground pool and tennis court, the Folly is equipped with geothermal heating for year-round comfort. Completing the estate is a charming coach house with an additional two-car garage, living room, bedroom, bath, and kitchen-perfect for guests or extended family. This is more than a home-it's a legacy property, meticulously maintained and thoughtfully enhanced for modern living. A true once-in-a-lifetime offering in Lake Forest.
