1091 Sheridan Rd Winnetka, IL 60093

On a bluff high above Sheridan Road sits a Tudor Revival-style home rich in history overlooking Lake Michigan with private beach access. Accessed by a private lane, the setting on a pristine ravine surrounded by tall pines feels like you are in the country, yet it is a short walk to Hubbard Woods boutique shops, train station and restaurants. Featured in The Chicago Tribune and Better Homes and Gardens, this home has a story! You enter through a high-walled, authentic red brick terrace with restored original gates. Larger than it appears, there are 8 rooms, 5 bedrooms and 4 full baths, including 2 primary suites with seasonal lake views, one on the main level. Cozy living room with an easy-on gas log fireplace and loads of bookshelves opens to the dining room with beautiful views of the tall trees. The home has undergone 2 major renovations, one in 1952 and another in 2008, which included a DeGuilio kitchen and main floor laundry. These changes created a more modern home with character and charm while retaining the integrity of the original structure. Topped with a handsome slate roof, every detail shows the high quality of renovation. See agent for a list of improvements including roof 2016, exterior paint 2019, high efficiency boiler, water heater, space pac and 220 amp electric.
