Newly Remodeled Bannockburn Estate Has 8 Fireplaces

BANNOCKBURN, IL — Designed by Stanley D. Anderson, architect of dozens of buildings around Lake Forest and Lake Bluff, and built in 1935, this renovated mansion mixes historic authenticity with modern convenience.

After getting his start as chief draftsman for Howard Van Doren Shaw, Anderson started his own architectural firm in 1925, which designed around 200 buildings before his death in 1960. His best known local buildings are Lake Forest High School, Lake Forest Bank, and Lake Forest Hospital.

With eight fireplaces located throughout the home, the nearly 6,000-square-foot interior offers hardwood floors throughout and original interior finishing. It includes a modern kitchen, a screened porch and a wood-paneled library. On its 7-acre lot, there is a pool, tennis court, stand-alone barn and a restored greenhouse cottage.
