Classic Mansion Inspired by French Norman Architecture

A luxury estate in Highland Park, Lake County, Illinois in the North Shore of Chicago is a new construction with traditional architecture. The 7,000 square foot home has its own private lake and a substantial amount of indoor/outdoor living spaces.

Wade Weissmann Architecture collaborated with Frank Ponterio, and Mariani Landscape was responsible for the landscaping. The home is a great architectural space for indoor/outdoor entertaining. 

The project features a modern classic approach with a balance of elegance and ease. Traditional materials such as brick, slate, copper, timber and stone were utilized.

French Norman Traditional Country Kitchen

One of the most interesting features of the interior is a home library hidden behind secret bookcase doors.
