The home
About 22839 Ridge Route Lane
The Largest Waterfront Lot in Lake Forest, a Setting that Simply Cannot be Replicated.
Positioned along the widest stretch of shoreline in Hidden Lakes, the residence sits beyond an expansive lawn and mature trees, creating a rare sense of depth between the home and the water. The scale of the parcel allows the lake to feel panoramic rather than immediate, private, quiet, and open in a way rarely experienced on waterfront properties. Inside, broad windows frame uninterrupted views across the water, drawing natural light deep into the home throughout the day. The layout lives comfortably toward the lake, allowing daily life to unfold around reflections, greenery, and sky. The interior has been thoughtfully updated while remaining warm and livable. Two bedrooms are located on the main level for flexibility and accessibility, while the kitchen has been refreshed to open naturally toward the living spaces and views beyond. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a quiet retreat, featuring a spacious bedroom, private balcony overlooking the lake, and a refined en suite bath highlighted by a custom walk-in shower. Outdoors, the grounds read more like a private garden than a backyard, with a dock along the shoreline, shaded pergola seating, fire pit lounge, and multiple areas to gather or retreat. The distance across the water preserves calm sightlines and reinforces the sense of space that defines the property. Practicality matches the setting with a full three car garage and separate RV parking, offering flexibility rarely available on lakefront homes and further emphasizing the scale of the lot. More than a waterfront residence, this is a true shoreline estate defined by land, proportion, and permanence in a way that can no longer be recreated within Lake Forest.
