About This Home

As of June 2022

Move right into this recently updated, classic brick colonial, 0.1 miles from Harper Elementary School. You'll love the comfort provided by your two-car attached garage (especially in the winter!). As you enter your home from the garage, take advantage of the new, thoughtfully designed mudroom with space to store everything. You can close the beautiful, decorative barn door behind you as you enter your home that flows in a way that just makes sense. The open kitchen with white cabinetry and granite countertops is a chef's dream with its Viking refrigerator and Thermador professional gas range. Sip your morning coffee in the kitchen nook overlooking the professionally landscaped yard. Gather with friends in your spacious family room and walk out the sliding glass doors leading to the new maintenance-free outdoor deck to continue the celebration. The formal dining room and living room provide even more space for living and entertaining in this bright, spacious, and meticulously maintained home. As you walk upstairs, notice the new hardwood floors throughout the second level. Choose any of the five bedrooms upstairs to be your oasis. The primary suite includes two walk-in closets and an ensuite bathroom. Savor the ample storage in the bedrooms with their large walk-in closets and enjoy the spacious linen closet. The second-floor skylight creates a lovely glow throughout the home. The updated basement boasts an open space for play or entertaining as well as a sixth bedroom, laundry room, and wet bar, making it the perfect place for gatherings and parties of all kinds. You'll adore this home and the area. The tree-lined streets and sidewalks entice you to walk to nearby Thornwood Park or bike around the picturesque neighborhood. Top-notch educational opportunities await you in District 39 and the New Trier School District. Be sure to check out the video tour of the home and neighborhood.
