Rarely does a residence of this magnitude and pedigree become available. Nestled just steps from the whispering shores of Lake Michigan, 86 Prospect Avenue is more than a home-it is a masterpiece of architectural significance. Originally commissioned in 2006 by a prominent local builder as his personal sanctuary, this estate has recently emerged from a multi-year, multi-million dollar transformation, championed by Red Rock Custom Homes and Earth Developments, as well as design carefully curated by Kara Mann Interiors, resulting in a seamless fusion of timeless North Shore grandeur and 2026's most sophisticated modern luxuries. Thoughtfully situated on three hand-selected well-located parcels, the land now totals .87 acres of meticulously manicured grounds. Your approach to the home is cinematic, featuring a brand new circular paver drive, adorned by timeless gas lamps and lush potted plants, which leads to a majestic porte-cochere, a private gated motor court, and a heated five-car garage. The rear grounds are anchored by a 45-foot heated pool recently totally redone and resurfaced, complemented by a stone fire pit and sprawling covered patios. The heart of the home is a bespoke Chef's Atelier featuring a striking marble and walnut island, Viking and Wolf ranges, Traulsen refrigeration with a dedicated commercial walk-in refrigerator, and Sub-Zero integrated drawers. This culinary suite transitions effortlessly from a sun-drenched breakfast room complete with a custom eating area with built-in benches to an expansive formal dining room anchored by a stately wood-burning fireplace. With over 14,000 square feet of finished living space, the home offers a versatile floor plan of eight to ten bedrooms, including a primary suite that serves as a bastion of tranquility with a private balcony, seasonal lake views, dual spa-inspired bathrooms, and two expansive custom dressing rooms. Four additional ensuite bedrooms and a hidden play area grace the second floor, while the third floor is dedicated to wellness with a professional gym, massage/yoga room, and recreation room. The walk-out lower level provides a sophisticated retreat with a second kitchen, three guest suites, three full bathrooms, and a large recreation room with a dedicated cabana bath. Built with a "forever" mindset, the estate includes a full-service elevator, two laundry suites, an executive library, a whole-house generator, and an advanced irrigation system. This is not merely an acquisition of real estate, but the acquisition of a lifestyle without compromise. Step into the perfect blend of timeless architecture and luxury north shore living. Welcome home! A few final touches being completed as we speak. Nearly $2.5m was invested in this home since in the last two years, a full list of improvements available upon request. ## Location - **Address:** 86 Prospect Avenue, Highland Park, IL 60035 - **County:** Lake ## Listing Agent - **Name:** Joe Tyler Gerber - **Brokerage:** Baird & Warner Real Estate - **Broker Phone:** 8474320500 ## Photos ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 1](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f2379034743r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 2](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f2615486306r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 3](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f1771532528r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 4](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f115205791r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 5](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f2449450174r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 6](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f2780723694r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 7](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f3587158376r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 8](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f1870106097r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 9](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f911516524r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 10](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f3845650236r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 11](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f2972001335r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 12](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f3279182646r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 13](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f3771121350r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 14](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f290417776r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 15](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f3911634853r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 16](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f2988610857r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 17](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f2036929635r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 18](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f285897256r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 19](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f1144709319r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 20](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f2739239979r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 21](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f2820894343r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 22](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f2029795825r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 23](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f2397784539r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 24](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f3175165579r.jpg) ![86 Prospect Avenue - Photo 25](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8f431e1535f805e495743002a439dc85l-f3835128006r.jpg) --- **MLS#:** 12781411 | **Updated:** 2026-10-24 **Source:** listhub *Copyright © 2026 Baird & Warner Real Estate.
