Premium location, corner lot, wooded setting with superb privacy including a brick paver terrace spanning the entire back of the home.

A large unfinished area can be utilized for hobbies and an abundance of storage. Brick paver walk, driveway, terrace and irrigation system complete the outdoors. So much to offer, so many possibilities! Maintenance Free Living at Its Finest! Welcome to Academy Woods, 77 single family homes with a homeowner's association. No long hallways to navigate, elevators to ride or neighbors above and below. All the convenience of condo living in a detached home! Located on the former Ogden J. Armour Estate, and home to Lake Forest Academy, the picturesque drive in to Academy Woods is so peaceful. Services provided each residence includes a comprehensive landscaping package: weekly cutting, edging, trimming and pruning, some weeding, bi-annual mulching and a spring and fall clean up. Snow removal after 2" to your garage and front door, gutter cleaning twice annually, painting of the exterior and maintenance and insurance for all the Academy Woods common areas. ONLY ONE Homeowners Association, no additional master association. Living in Academy Woods is not just a home, or neighborhood, it is a lifestyle that will free up some of your precious time. Academy Woods residents are fortunate to have direct access to the Middlefork Savanna, once part of a large glacial lake. The Middlefork Savanna provides safe harbor for endangered plant and wildlife species, uncommon birds, butterflies and other species and several environmentally sensitive wetlands. Enjoy 670 acres of walking trails, birding, bicycling, cross-country skiing and hiking.
