Property Description

Set on one of the largest lots in Shorewood Forest, this beautifully maintained home on Westchester Lane sits on nearly an acre of wooded surroundings, creating a quiet, tucked-away feel--yet just a short walk to the lake. Offering 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, the layout includes a main-level primary suite and multiple living areas that provide flexibility for gathering or spreading out. The backyard is designed to be enjoyed, with an in-ground pool, Trex deck, firepit, and professional landscaping that gives it a polished, resort-like setting without feeling overdone. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully updated with a well-appointed kitchen, remodeled bathrooms, and rich Brazilian koa hardwood floors that bring warmth into the main living spaces. A large unfinished basement adds even more potential, with the space to be finished for related living, extended living areas, or a custom setup that fits your needs. In addition, there is an approximately 700 sq ft attic space--already roughed in for gas and electric--offering another opportunity to expand over time. Major updates including a newer roof, high-efficiency furnace, whole-house generator, and more reflect the level of care throughout. All of this, set within Shorewood Forest and the highly regarded, award-winning Wheeler school district, makes it easy to settle in now while still having room to grow over time.
